I smile as I see you greet me at the door
It has been a journey, one I have seen before

You meet, you kiss, you fall in love
You thank everyone in heaven above

But this time is different than times in the past
This time I have in you a friend that will forever last

The way your hands feels as it holds mine
Our friendship has stood the test of time

As fall approaches and Christmas is near
I have no worries and no fears

That we will be together for many years.

I love your heart, your warmth and charm
Now would there be any harm -

Harm in loving your best friend
I give my love to you my prince, love always Cinderella.

The End.
