I Feel Like I Know You

When I first met you 
I felt like I had known you forever, 
telling you my secrets 
and what I didn't want ever. 
You listened to me.
I bet you thought I'd never end. 
Who would have thought 
we would become more than just friends. 
Over a period of time
I got to know the real you. 
A boy so caring and gentle 
with a heart so true. 
You've survived your life 
with hurt and loneliness by your side. 
I told you I'd never leave 
because of the feelings I have inside. 
I know you 
like no one I have ever known, 
and sometimes I wonder 
what I'd do if you were gone?
