I
once had a life and a home
It
was made up of sadness and pain
It
was the only life that I had known
And
it nearly drove me insane
One
day the walls came crumbling down
With
pieces shattering all around me
Destroying
the little bit I had
And
tearing apart my family
I
was at the breaking point
The
very bottom of despair
When
a stranger came along
Showing
me concern and care
It
wasn’t very long ago
But
he means the world to me
He
couldn’t begin to understand
How
much he’s done for me
He
was so very patient
As
he listened to my pain
He
has become my very dear friend
Who
helped me “smile” again
I
felt trapped with no hope for escape
It
was this stranger who set me free
I
would have remained completely lost
Without
the compassion he showed me
By
giving me the courage
To
seek a new life of my own
He
gave me strength
Something
I had never known
He
made me realize my ambition
To
explore a world, out on my own
His
gift was more than mere friendship
He
gave me the hospitality of his home
He
says he is just a simple man
But
he is so much more than that to me
I’ve
been truly blessed to have known him
Even
if to his heart, I do not have the key
There
was a kind of love for us,
It’s
just the “magic” wasn’t there
But
there will be a very special bond
That
the two of us will always share
He
is searching for that someone special,
A
soul mate to the end
I
sincerely pray his dreams come true,
My
best wishes to my dearest friend
From
here I don’t know what path
My
life will be heading down
But
I have no regrets,
And
I won’t be turning around
I
will remember the lessons
The
laughter and the smiles
No
matter where I am
Or
how many miles
He
has a place in my heart
And
that will NEVER change
Even
if there is distance between us
And
I am out of range
I
can never repay him
For
all that he has done
I
just want him to know
That
I am the Lucky One
