My Best Friend
Author Unknown

Today I found a friend
who knew everything I felt.
She knew my every weakness
and the problems I've been dealt.

She understood my wonders
and listened to my dreams.
She listened to how I felt about life and love,
and knew what it all means.

Not once did she interrupt me
or tell me I was wrong.
She understood what I was going through

and promised she'd stay long.

I reached out to this friend
to show her that I care,
to pull her close and let her know
how much I need her there.
I went to hold her hand
to pull her a bit nearer
and realized that this perfect friend I found
was nothing but my mirror.
