To my dearest cousin...
As childhood friends, we grew up together,
Swearing to be friends forever and ever.
Sometimes we would argue and fight,
Other times we would laugh and stay up all night.
We went from playing with games and toys,
To talking and dreaming about different boys.
My thoughts and feelings to you I would confide,
Never having anything to hide.
Friends I’m sure we do remain,
Things changing, things staying the same.
To each other we still listen and share,
About each other, we will always care.
Together we've been through a lot.
Caring not what others thought.
We stood tall and held our ground.
Foundation from our mothers kept us sound.
You've given us hope in times of despair.
You do this for us because I know you care.
You make me laugh, you bring me smiles,
Even though we're separated by miles.
Your strength is an example especially to me
I look up to you, I hope you can see
You taught the family on what is family love
Believe me you’re like an angel from up above
As I turn the pages and recall each single thought,
I realize the happiness that knowing you has brought.
And when I recall these memories as I go along life's way,
I find they grow more precious with every passing day.
Now we've grown up and have left the nest.
The love we share will still be the best.
My cousin I do love you true
My thoughts will always travel back to you
For everything you are and all that you do,
I want you to know I'll do the same for you.
So, Ranzouz, as you can see;
You're very special, especially to ME! ! !
