A cold wind blows and I shudder against the night
But I feel for your hand and the dark fades to light
Bite my lip in confusion
Lost in my own mind
Your smile melts my sorrow and takes what I hide
You open the pages reading each word with care
Whist others browse quickly
Ignoring my hurtful stare
So much more than my friend
You share the good with the bad
Giving me something that I’ve never had
An ear always listening
A heart where judgement has no hold
A firm shoulder to cry on
The best advice ever sold
But you come with no price tag
Your there because you want to be
So many words
so much to thank you for
You’re the earth and sky to me
