We may not have known each other the longest,
Nor we have known each other the best.
I knew you only as a friend of friend,
But now, you are my only friend.
My shyness has always been a hindrance in building a relationship,
But that is certainly not the case with our friendship.
You make me feel secure and comfortable with your warmth and kindness.
Our friendship blossomed towards the end of our course,
But I promise you I will maintain it till the end of my life.
You have been my strength during my worst,
I know with you by my side, I will eventually regain my best.
We may not be siblings by birth,
But you mean more to me than a sister I never had.
If I have ever hurt you, I hope never,
I pray the special bond we share remains forever.
Sweet poem and a very beautiful picture.
