Best Kind Of Friend

You understand me
live no one else
I could never be
no other than myself.

Around you there's
no hiding the pain
no holding back tears
I'd have nothing to gain.

You can see things
no one else sees
right into my being
and still you love me.

Our friendship is
the very best kind
as your heart gives
strength of mind.

Thank you for your
understanding of me
friends like you
help me to be me.
