Someone Who Understands

He called me smart

And made my smile glow

He understood

What was important to me

And why

He has the same standard

Oh the joy I feel

To have someone understand

I remember many times

Where we talked and laughed

He is safe

For me to share my pearls

Those pearls that I have long since hid

For hardly anyone understood

He talks of his family

With love and care

I hear it in his voice

And know it is in his eyes

He understands

And wants the same things

I think I could fall for him, quite possibly

We talked for hours

Of every little thing

Sometimes reminiscing

Of past sweet memories

Crazy how he knows me

Sometimes better than me

Crazy how I know him

Sometimes better than him

He said the world became brighter

When I left that shell

So long ago

I am grateful for his friendship

He is such a good man

One day if it is meant to be 

Perhaps we would become more 

Than good friends

For he understands

And is such a good man

But for now, I will cherish

The friendship that we have 

And call as he invited 

When I feel lonely

All the time wondering

If he will ever know

How much those words mean to me

Coming from the man 

Who understands

And who called me smart
