You Are My Best Friend
Hejaz©

You are my best friend through thick and thin. When
You reach for my hand you touch my heart. You are
The bestest friend that i can have.

You are there for me when i need you the most. You
Cheer me up when i am down. If i am about to cry u
Make me smile. You are my bestest friend and i can
Not lie.

You listen to me and give me advice, advice that comes
Straight from the bottom of your precious heart. You are
My best friend in the whole wide world and i couldn't ask
God for a little bit more.

We are going to grow older, and things will change but our
Friendship will forever still remain. I'll make new friends but
That won't change because you will always be my best friend.

I'd like to mean as much to you as you mean to me. I'd like to
Be some help to you as you have been to me. I'd like to know
That as we grow old our lives will change but that our

Friendship will still remain.

Me and you will never be apart maybe in distance but never in
Heart for our friendship is way to strong to let it go off
just like
That.

All i can say is that you are my best friend and i swear to God
That i don't want it to change. I may move to a different state but
That doesn't mean that our friendship will end, because you will
Always be my best friend. No matter what life has destined for us
I know that our friendship will never die.

Love you always, "

ARE YOU MY FRIEND?
Hejaz

Will you be there when I'm down,
And catch me when I fall?
Will you hold me when I need
To feel the warmth of your touch?

Will you laugh when I laugh,
And cry when I cry?
Will you let me rant and rave,
When I need to let off steam?

Will you discuss those painful things,
That you'd rather not think about?
Like the times we've hurt each other,
And promised would never do so again?

Will you say the right thing,
When all I've heard is the wrong?
And tell me soothing words,
That make the pain I feel subside?

Will you understand me when I say,
"I can't see you now, go away"?
Will you come back when I call,
As if nothing happened at all?

If you'll do these things for me,
And keep smiling all the way.
If you'll be with me through the bad times,
As well as the good.

Then truly you are my friend,
My pal, my mate and my confidante.
And that means so much to me.
I thank you dearly, for being there,
You, My Friend.

A LETTER TO A FRIEND...
Hejaz

You reign above each one I know with the love I will forever bear
The love of thanks and admiration from the depths of a heart that carries life twelve years too late.

If comfort, strength and inspiration come from heaven, then you ny friend, are an angel

"Friend", such a word that carries not few enough meanings - these meanings of which in circumstance we can not agree.

"Friend", I sit and question in the darkness of light . . .the lightness of day . . . but still will see, will hope, will make believe much more than your practical theory - the truth

I understand but cannot accept the locks and bars of professionalism.

I long not for the games, but the closeness of a companionship with the one who understands my dreams, and is a constant reminder of who I want to be.

Friends shake their heads, they say I've changed.
I though, am nodding, and I raise my hand to a teacher as a student always should, not stepping out of line, not calling out loud.

From a "friend" and brother.

WHAT YOU ARE TO ME

A quick glance, a tender smile,
I am caught in a spell.

A gentle touch, a warm embrace,
I know that all too well.

A soft voice, an unspoken love,
Across the way I see.
