The nicest person in the world <br />Told me herself that 'nobody in the world is kind' <br />Something like that stays on your mind <br />Why did she say, she needn't remind <br /> <br />She's a girl who stays in your thought <br />Sensitive <br />Fighting so hard <br />Smiling to hide tears, that pain and hardship brought <br /> <br />I have love for her <br />At heart, a warm embrace <br />I'd bend on one knee, in humility <br />to serve her and wipe a tear from her face <br /> <br />She makes me realize <br />Others also have it tough <br />Life can be so cruel <br />And on the caring..so rough <br /> <br />And it's from a soft place in my heart <br />I call her my friend <br />I wish there was more love in me <br />that I could send <br /> <br />My heart I gave to another <br />And she's mourning some other <br />Isn't that the sadness of life <br />In love, but not with your wife <br /> <br />Touched by others far away <br />Love is a castaway <br />That's found and tossed away <br />Bound to be lost on the sea <br /> <br />And though my heart is overflowing <br />Love is not meant for me <br />But I give you the part I can <br />The part that's given free <br /> <br />I have a heart for you <br />I hope you know and see <br />When the world is hard on you <br />You can come to me <br /> <br />I care enough to hold your hand <br />To caress you tenderly <br />And to thank God that I was here <br />On the day you needed me <br /> <br />You say you will always be there <br />I find it hard to trust in others <br />But I somehow believe it's true <br />I hope also you feel my care for you<br /><br />JAMES T.
