Dearest Friend,

Over the many years,
From the first day we've met
I've always saw the spark in you,
which all you thought was a black hole,
Eating away inside at you,
Delving deeper,
But the little faint light of hope was there
Just waiting for you to ignite it
Because you could be so much more
I knew you could
And maybe somewhere along the way
You realized you could
And you finally did
You've managed to leave the bitterness behind
The pain, the hurt
And now with so many people who love you surrounding you
I no longer feel your presence
Hear your horrible jokes
Or feel that arm sling comfortably over my shoulders
Like an armrest
Because you tower like a skyscraper
One with a tuff of redheaded frizz on top
Making me look up and see your face
Framed with brightly lit skyscrapers behind and the cloudy night sky
I will miss you
And that is all that I will do

As someone who has watched you struggle
Fighting against the demons within
Still you had kindness within you
To take care of the people around you
Even with the hurt raging within
Now that you've become happy
I'm proud of you
And I'm happy for you
I really am.
