Second chance friend

As I walked alone through the valley of deep shadow.

I was feeling lost, afraid, full of sorrow and despair.

I made my way through each new day growing weak and weary.
I clung to the hope of a better tomorrow to find it just as dreary.

I grew tired of my life I just wished that it would end.
That is when you grabbed my hand and led me round the bend.

You showed me what its like to have a true friend.
One who listens and cares and helps shoulder my burden.

You were patient and kind and helped me find my way.
I remember the long night conversations as the night faded to day.

And slowly I'd fall asleep looking forward to a brand new day.
What I'd have done without a friend like you I really couldn't say.

We had our ups and downs wed argue and wed fight.
But soon we would come to terms and everything would be all right.

Fate deemed that we would meet at a dark time in my life.
And gave me you as a friend someone to help me see the light.

You were always there to talk to whenever I had the need.
A much better than I deserved much better than I indeed.

You found some one who was meant just for you
and tho scared I'd loose a best friend I was happy for you.

Don't get me wrong I truly was but I wanted to keep you as a friend
I guess I tried to hard for I did more bad than good in the end.

A friend like you is hard to find I must have lost my mind.
Throwing knives to pierce our bond with words so cruel unkind.

I don't know how to make this right but I will find a way.
So I beg of you forgiveness lets start anew today.

But if I've crossed the line of no return and being friends won't work.
Then I only have myself to blame for it was you that my words hurt.
