My Comforter My Friend

I met a friend by chance!  It was in a schoolyard
                  when I first saw her glance
                                                                             
                  We shared all our secrets our hopes and our dreams
                  believing that we, would have high self esteem

                  Two hearts broken in half, different stories
                  with different past

                  She showed me to love my father
                  how to grieve for my mother
 
                  These years we have jouneyed both near and apart
                  keeping each other close in our hearts

                  Her comfort to me, in all of my days   
                  was God's promise, "I will be with you always"
   
                  This friendship we share is true,  none compare  
                  a gift from above, when I first saw you there
