Seeking safe waters to harbor my thoughts, I found a confidant to calm my soul. Despite the deafening sound of silence, I heard your voice above the rigmarole. Supplying comfort and companionship, you move me with the depth of your concern. And acting like my guardian angel, you rescue tinder-dreams before they burn. Having felt the agony of love lost, you understand the feelings I'm feeling. And defusing frustration and anger, you guide me through the stages of healing. You offer my heart a glimmer of hope, assuring me my suffering will end. And you're always there when I need to cry on a sympathetic shoulder, my friend.
