A Special Friend

The Heart Knows

Angel Writer
Your smile is the light

That shines a path to your door

I accept you just the way you are

Who you are; who you claim to be

I give a part of me to you

Every time we connect

Once strangers now

Friends who extend

The best part of ourselves

The tenderness in your voice

Shines through the darkness

The light that guides me back

By your side wanting more of you

If I had to reach for your hand

It will be there

I see you on the shore

When the whirlpool seeks

To pull me under

I hear you calling

Through my fears

You give me strength

When I believe I am weak

You gave; I received

It was right

You are special

You are you

I am me

Never questioned

Never doubted

It just is

    Very beautiful poem !

    "A thousand points of light" do you remember that? A political slogan once, but the opening lines here called it to my mind. Alone, we light
    just a small point. As we connect to more and more "smiles" we light more of the world for all to see. Thanks for your light Angel.

    The thoughts in this poem come from deep within and provoke deep thought. Am I that kind of friend? Can I be that kind of friend? Do I have any friends like that? Really makes one think! Keep up the good work!

    I like the mystery that surrounds the poem, the deepness of the inner thoughts " it is what it is". Keep up the good writing!!!!!!!
