My New Friend

I meet a new friend
who means the world to me
He makes me laugh
and puts a smile on my face
He makes me feel safe and loved
Even though he is so far away

The wait between us
I cannot stand
how long it takes
only to talk to you again

How you stick up for me
and make my tears fall away
How your voice is a healing hand
Always telling me I am special to you

....Because you are my new friend and,
I will always be there for you
like you have always been there for me
