My Symbiotic Friend

My symbiotic friend

On whom I often lean

You lift me up,

Help me smile

On days seemingly cheerless and grim

Oh, how I’ve come to depend on you

And I wonder what it is

I give to you

That keeps you here by my side

I hope I cheer you

As you do me

I hope my strength is enough

To buoy you up on days too bleak

I want so much to give to you

All you’ve given me, and more

Ah, my symbiotic friend

My senses are keener

Because of you

My mind clear and sharp

For the questions you ask of me

Forcing me to mine deeper

Until the answers flow

My symbiotic friend

I thank you
