Everything was clouding around me

Completely lost, I was drowning

There was nothing much I could do

To save myself from falling.

I was searching for a solace

To share my feelings

A person to talk to, hoping -

I could just forget everything.

You came along my way

Talking, laughing and teasing

Made me forget my pains

Changed everything and let all go away.

A stranger, I have not seen

Nor do I know who you are

But you gave me a beautiful gift

More precious than anything in this world.

You offered me friendship

My friend, what more could I ask for ?

Unaware of what has happened

You helped me through and through..

Now, life goes on with you

I keep wondering, for how long?

Knowing, that one fine day

We would part and go our own ways.

But your gift to me remains for ever

Never to be lost or stolen.

And, I would always cherish our memories

Carrying them to the end of my days.
