\u00a0<\/p>\n
I needed a friend today.<\/p>\n
I was starving for your undivided attention.<\/p>\n
I yearned to be comforted today.<\/p>\n
I was thirsting for acceptance.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
You shared your heart, unapologetically.<\/p>\n
I saw your struggles as you pulled open the curtain that veiled your heart.<\/p>\n
Your sweet spirit resonated with me.<\/p>\n
Your empathy is a healing balm for my soul.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Your listening ear uplifted me.<\/p>\n
Your understanding words washed over me.<\/p>\n
They watered my arid heart.<\/p>\n
They nourished my barren life.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
I look on now, weak, wounded, but joyful and healing.<\/p>\n
I take a step forward, determined yet shaky.<\/p>\n
I am moving on, trusting that the best is yet to come.<\/p>\n
Thank you, dearest friend, for helping me have faith in life again.<\/p>\n
