I Call You Friend

I think people use the term friend to loosely, I’m so thankful that God has allowed me to come in contact with true friends: people I know I can call in all emergencies. This summer when I was kicked out my house, my friends Therese, Sophia, Tasha, Dania, Tanisha, Alix and Jared helped me get through one of the most difficult times in my life. They all helped me in different ways using their own special gifts and talents. I love you guys.

Many will say they are loyal friends, but who can find one who is truly reliable? Proverbs 20:6

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

You saved me when I was on the brink of self destruction

You saw me in all of my disfunction


Wiped the tears from my eyes, tickled me with your antics

Whenever I think of you I smile from ear to ear

With you by my side what do I have to fear


I call you friend


On days I can barely face myself in the mirror

Through your eyes I see my reflection


Through your eyes I see my strengths magnified

My weaknesses become sanctified


I call you friend


You remind me about what I can become

Your words are like sandpaper gently refining me, polishing me


Glimmering Dark Mahogany


Because of you everyone sees me for what I truly am

A child of God, a gentlemen, a kind soul


Thank you!


I call you friend
