My Dearest Friend (A Collaboration With Audrey Carey)

M	y best friend is the one who brings out the best in me!
Y	esterday, I was in the dark, now I see things more clearly!

D	elighted in the comfort that only you seem to provide
E	agerly, I bask in your presence allowing you to guide
A	lways encouraging, lifting so high
R	eaching for my goals as time goes by
E	asy to talk to everything we share
S	unshine or rain, I will still care
T	oday into forever, my dearest friend you will be

F	aithful and true is one dear friend like you!
R	eady to lend a hand in the good things I do
I	nch by inch, you’ve torn down the walls
E	njoying encounters when hearts call
N	ow and again, there’s a collision of wills, 
D	enying you would be to deny myself, still
