To my best friend,

You are quite possibly one of the most influential people in my life.

We chose each other to call family.

Since then, we've been there for each other.

You've seen me at my worst, yet you still stay by me.

I revel in your accomplishment as if they were my own.

I know you were meant for great things!

No matter what life throws after you, I will be in your corner.

I will fight for you if I must.

My friend, 

I love you dearly,

with an all-encompassing, powerful love.

When I felt that no one else would understand my problems,

I turned to you,

And you advised me.

You are my guide,

My mentor,

My sister,

My...friend. 

I am so blessed to know you and to have you in my life. 

I promise to strive to be the friend you deserve.

You are such an inspiration to me;

I want to be just like you,

With your soft touch and your heart of gold.

My friend, my friend, you need to know these words are true,

And I say them because I love you.
