I never knew

I never knew, I wish I knew, you're my best friend who left unexpectedly without a hug or even a goodbye, I wish I was there protecting you, fighting by your side, watching your back, keeping you from harm, that's what we do for each other, I knew I had the perfect companion from day one when I first found you, I wish I had acted earlier, showed you everything you deserved to see, treat you the way you wanted to be treated, you are my best friend and I wait to hear from you everyday, I never give up hope, I fight the good fight because you inspired me to, you gave me faith when I though I didn't have any, you gave me love when I was down, and you showed me friendship when I had none to give to anyone, I wish you were here, for me to hold, for me to love, and for me to be with, I'll never let go, I'll always wait for yo, because you were the only person to make me feel the way I do, I love you, but the sad thing is I never knew.....

Dedicated to Mary, I love you and will always look for you.
