Stephanie
I met you on a crowded bus
you shared with me your seat
i was new to the school
so you befriended me
i never saw i smile
like the one you gave to me
filled with kindness and generosity
that year we shared a million things
and filled our time with laughs
drowning out the pain
we both knew to well
no longer were we two people
we became as one
we joked if one got married
he'd have to marry both of us
the year flew by to quickly
fall had just arrived
and my moments with you grew sparse
just like warm sunny days
my last days with you before you left
were my hardest to survive
and when we said good bye
I knew i would not see you for a long time
i also knew you had to go
to stretch you knew found wings
this town was to small for you
you deserve grater things
took off to the big city
and left all you knew behind
never looking back at once was you broken life
so many tears I cried
because I felt alone
months of waiting for a phone call
and wishing to see your smile
then in my darkest hour
fate dealt me a good hand
i called a cell phone number
and heard your voice on the other end
i couldn't believe my ears
it wasn't to long before we were in tears
so dear friend my soul mate
i will always be here for you
and when you want the best laugh or the hardest cry
just think of me and I'll be there
to share with you a seat
