You gave me words of kindness
Tied with a ribbon of gold
Hearing them was important
To heal my heart and soul
Your gift of words made a difference
When i was down and feeling blue
Questioning why i bother
Doing all the things i do
Life can be a challenge
Sometimes it seems unfair
But when i was tired and struggling
It helped that you were there
What can i give you in return
Your friendship is so dear
Please know if you ever need to talk
I'll always lend and ear
Kind words and time are needed
By people everywhere
When wrapped with a smile or a hug
They're a gift that says i care
