My Dearest Friend

By: Heri Cahyono

Since the moment I saw you

There was a feeling of wanting to possess you

I wanted to know you better

To be closer and more intimate with you

I prayed to God

That we could be reunited

To form a bond of friendship

Without any farewells

And in the end

God answered my prayer

Leading me to an unexpected place

Bringing me to you

Now we are always together

Building dreams and aspirations

Trying to support each other

Even if it's just a simple act of kindness and concern

I want us to remain friends forever

Until we can achieve anything

That we have ever planned

For our future lives

I want you to always be there for me

To be my lifetime friend and companion

Accepting every weakness of mine

Covering it with your strength

Please never leave me

Even though we have each other's

Lifetime partners

Accompanying us in our lives

Stay my dearest friend

O you, the one I love

Don't ever tire or get bored

Being by my side forever
