A New Friend

I'm happy to say,
The world looks better today.
Everything seems so bright,
And more places are filled with light.
I know it's because I met someone new, 
He is different and his name is Matthew.
He makes things seem better in my head,
I even talk to him when I can't go to bed.
I have never met anyone like him,
His personality is bright and not dim.
He makes everyone around him smile, 
The jokes he makes last a while.
I know I made a good choice,
To start talking and hearing his voice.
I'm very thankful to have him as a friend,
I'll appreciate him until the end.
