How to say

How do you tell people You've only just met, Who you've known No more than a year That you hoped This would happen You hoped You'd be friends. How soon is too soon To tell them they helped Get you through things. Made you see You weren't alone. How do you tell them You're thankful You got to meet them And have them Part of a chapter In your life. How do you explain Without them You'll be lost, Knowing they'll move on Without you. How do you tell them This is a form of love You're experiencing Too soon. How do you say That they made your days. Work was exciting If only because of them. How do you tell people You've only just met That you hope They'll be around A while longer. How do you say, 'I hope you will stay.' Without seeming selfish.
