I was sitting here thinking <br />Of the words I wanted to say <br />But they just wouldn’t come out right <br />So I found a different way <br /> <br />I got a piece of paper <br />And I wrote this poem for you <br />But there’s no way to thank you <br />For everything you do <br /> <br />For always being nice to me <br />And staying by my side <br />For helping fix my problems <br />And never leaving me behind <br /> <br />For accepting my thoughts and feelings <br />Though you do not understand <br />For never giving up on me <br />And being my best friend <br /> <br />For making me laugh <br />And letting me cry <br />And saying you’d miss me <br />If I were to die <br /> <br />Everything you mean to me <br />You could never know <br />In all the ways you’ve changed my life <br />I could never show <br /> <br />The way you take care of me <br />You’re my shinning star <br />And though it’s so incredible <br />That’s just the way you are <br /> <br />Before this gets too sentimental <br />It’s time for me to go <br />But before I leave this ink-filled page <br />There’s one thing you should know <br /> <br />As long as we are living <br />No matter when or where <br />If you ever need me <br />Just call and I will be there <br /> <br />I’ll climb a thousand mountains <br />And swim a thousand seas <br />Anything to be there <br />Because you’ve always been there for me<br /><br />Ashleigh Gaffney<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-was-sitting-here-thinking/
