Gracefully

We've been friends, and now you're going

Far away for many years
But please don't leave me without knowing
How I feel as your time nears

I know you're older, much mature
And far beyond me in some ways
But there;s between us something pure
Thats given me these magic days

I thank you for the loveliness
That your sweet friendships' brought to me
Think of this poem as a caress
That says, "I LOVE YOU" gracefully
