You’ve saved my life in so many ways
You’ve gotten me through so much
When I feel lost, I always know who I can come to

We’ve had our arguments, out petty little fights
But nothing can break this friendship apart
You’ve given me a piece of you, and I feel I must repay

You make me laugh with your funny faces
Like no one else could ever do
This is the perfect day to tell you what’s been in my heart for a full year now

If when we graduate, we must go our separate ways
You will be in my heart forever and always
No matter what, I’ll never have a friend who’s better than you

Tears come to my eyes as I write this poem for you
This is how I say happy birthday
I hope your wish has come true

If I’ve ever needed proof that True Friends exist
I’ve only had to look to the person walking beside me
Because my proof that God makes true friends is you
