The first time we met,
I knew I could trust you.
Not a burden, nor a threat.
Together we grew.
Our bonds of friendship, unbroken.
Life was light, as it was dark.
Loyalty, honesty. Given. Unspoken.
We've always had that spark.
It has all been thrown at us.
Never once did I doubt,
Through all the breaks and cuts,
The screams, the shouts.
We'll always have each other,
Everyone else is background noise,
That has become lost in the thunder,
As we've discovered our joys.
Friend is too weak a word,
To describe what you are.
Family is more preferred,
As you are never far
From my heart and mind.
When the call comes,
I'll respond in kind.
No matter the outcome.
We've had each other's backs,
Through joys and losses.
Through thick and thin,
Sam, what a pleasure it's been.
Being friends with someone for 9 years, you're bound to go through a lot together. Love each other, hate each other. break apart then reunite. Goddess knows we've had our fair share of trials, even at a young age. Through it all, there was never any doubt in my mind about the loyalty and honesty within our friendship. I am reminded of that today. Sam, if you read this, I am humbled and honoured by the friendship we've had. Let's keep growing. I have all the love and respect for you in the world.
