Thankful 11/27/98

I am thankful that we finally met
After a year of knowing each other.
Of all the times and memories we had,
And hopefully more in the future.
Not only getting the chance of seeing you,
But that of a couple of your close friends.
People I also had talked to
And have gotten to know because of you -
Who are important part of your life.
I feel close to you
And to the people around you.
The ability to share your friends
Who treat me like they would you.
I am fair game in their eyes
To be abused which I enjoy in a strange sense
Feeling like one of the guys.
It was nice spending time together
Even if at first it seemed rather awkward
Since we were both very shy.
It will always be a visit,
That I'll treasure forever.
