My Mandy

September 12, 2017

The days can be long

The afternoons, longer

I can forget who I am sometimes

And at times, the doubts can get stronger

But your name on my screen

And your voice on the phone

Are enough to reel me back in

This, I'll always know

You remind me I'm strong

I'm worth it

I'm fine

You clear up the fears and doubts in my mind

You give me time and space

When I need it the most

And you're there for me

When I feel lost and alone

You back me up, affirm my feelings

You give me a boost of confidence

When my own is fleeting

You hold my hand, make me try new things

You cheer me on as I stretch my wings

You make me scream and laugh

Jump and dance

I can't think of anyone

Who can do all of that

Most of all, you're a powerful impact on my life

An influence I'll always have

You're the greatest friend I've ever known

And I just wanted to tell you that

Though we may not see each other every day

And may not talk every night

Even though you are states away

You're a light in my cloudy life

So happy birthday

And I'll see you soon

Mandy, I dedicate this poem to you
