Growing away from friends is one of the hardest parts of growing up... mostly because it's our own fault for losing touch with each other. One of my close friends asked me how we had managed to lose touch.. This was my response to him.

How do I tell you I'm sorry -With a gesture, a look, a touch?
How is it I never realized , I hurt you so very much?
I do not ask forgiveness, A comfort I'll never deserve.
I merely want to let you know, But I cannot find the nerve.

I do not ask forgiveness, A comfort I'll never deserve.
I merely want to let you know, But I cannot find the nerve.
To finally confront you, face-to-face, To look you in the eye,
To face your wrath, your apathy - Too terrified to try.
You called me selfish, I turned away, I festered and I fled;
Cutting and wounding and lashing out, Just to see if you bled.
Betraying and deceiving you, I surely had no right
To snatch away such a precious gem; A dark thief in the night.
The time has come, it's long past due, To put aside my fear;
Would this confession torture you, Or have you longed to hear?
To hear those two forbidden words, To vanquish all the pain,
To understand my dearest wish: To know you once again.
When I present these simple words, I never thought to say.
Though they have not made me wise; I do know I erred irrevocably -
FROM ABOVE....
I prayed for you before we met,
Not knowing who you'd be.
I asked the Lord to send a friend.
One chosen just for me.
I asked that they'd be Godly,
With wisdom of His ways.
A friend to help and guide me
I the troubles of these days.
So often in life, we need someone
To listen while we talk.
Someone who will not condemn or judge,
But encourage us as we walk.
The narrow road we choose to follow
May sometimes make us stumble.
But to have a friend to catch our fall,
Teaches us to be humble.
When I asked the Lord to send a friend,
Though many came and went.
He gave much more than I ever asked,
For you are the friend He sent.
