My True Friend

My eyes tear up just thinking of the day you will depart
          My true friend from the start,
          The one who sees my heart
It feels too soon to say good-bye, too soon to let you go
          The winds of time so quickly blow,
          Didn't we just say hello?
It feels like only yesterday we sat and talked for hours
          As our friendship’s lovely flowers,
          Bloomed with Godly showers
Didn't I just come to you with sadness on my face?
          And with a deep embrace,
          You filled me with His Grace
The bonds of love I feel for you are deeper than the ocean
          This wondrous emotion,
          An unswerving devotion
I already have a hole inside though you haven’t even left yet
          That date a silent, heavy threat,
          Of teary eyes and hearts upset
And yet I know deep in my heart that all I will ever have to do
          To feel God's love and be renewed,
          Is close my eyes and think of you
