Thank you so much
For saving my life
That terrible night
For taking the knife
I know that you don’t know
That you really did save me
I know you don’t know you took it
But that’s ‘cause I’m a person you can’t see
You listen to me all the time
When no one else would
You made me feel so alive
Like everyone should
One night, I just needed to talk
Needed to rant so badly
And you were there to listen
You really helped me
You said that you love me
That’s not something that usually hear
That’s something I really…appreciate
And I’m always going to hold that dear
You mean so much to me
You could not possibly imagine
You’re the nicest person I know
You’re such a wonderful woman
You were the first friend
That I made here on AP
You got it through that
I was actually…something
You’re also the very first person
I ever said, “I love you,” to
That was something
That I never thought I could do
Your uplifting IM’s
And wonderful comments
Have really saved me
Even though you’re not physically present
I know this is a little late
I’m sorry the rhyming scheme’s so fickle
But I just really wanted to say
Happy birthday, Crystal!!

OHHHHH KATE MAKE ME CRY WHY DONT YOU!!!! Sorry I haven't been on hunny. I have had a lot going on lately. I do love you Kate with all my heart. You are always in my thoughts and I worry to bits about you. I can't believe that I helped someone. That's not really something I am used to. But you have to realize I love you Kate and helping comes with that. You know that I am always here for those rants and those tears and those hugs and twinkies *hands you back the box* I am on a diet
I love you my dear. Thank you for making me feel so special LOVE YOU ALWAYS KATE~Crys
