The Best Friend
The best friend I ever had Smiled right at me, And made my feelings soar, Making me so free. She filled my heart with love, Right before my eyes. And without a word- Took away my sad sighs. The best friend I ever had, Was, of course, sweet you. That's why you'll always be Wonderful through and through!

A Dream Within a Dream
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow:
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand-
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep-while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?
There's so much I can't say when I look into your eyes. I'm worried you'll reject me and hurt my foolish pride. Each day this love grows stronger, but I could never show. I'd hold you for a lifetime, if you would let me in. I'd love you like no other, but you don't understand. Every time I see you your holding on to her. The pain is like a knife cutting deep into my soul. So I'll dream of us together, of just how it could be. And all that you are will remain a silent part of me
