Special Friend

A poem for a friend.

True beauty is something
that you can't fake,
And you have it glowing
from within.

Barely even friends
and it feels like forever,
my long lost sister...
my best friend.

Intelligence that most
never see,
quietly hiding until
we bring it to the surface.

Almost like a little girl
sometimes,
needing protection...
but not really.

Strong willed if you would
let it come out more,
a fighter's spirit
an angel's voice.

How many have seen
the real you?
The lucky ones,
know the truth.

A girl,
A woman,
A friend,
A sister...
All rolled up in you.
