My Friend Ana

A little girl came up to me, said "Want to be my friend?

I am new in town and know no one and you seem very nice."

"Of course," I said "I'm Anna." She smiled and took my hand.

"No way," she said. "Mine too!"

From that day on we became like one for better or for worse

We played together and danced together, sung together and ate together.

Never was I lonely, once she came into my life.

She loved me and I loved her.

We swore never to part,

She quickly worked her way into my heart.

She only wanted the best for me and worked with me to get it.

Her love for me was so great she spared me embarrassment through her harsh criticism.

Because she loved me she told me honestly of every flaw and err

She pushed me hard out of love to work on self-improvement.

With each new day she grew harsher and yet she still cared.

I did my best to please her but nothing seemed to satisfy.

She cut me off from all and often made me cry

"You must not listen to your 'friends.' They know you not like I. I am you and you are me, one Anna to them all."

"I know," I said "I'll follow your for life."

She led me to a new land full of sorrow, toil and strife

An outsider looking in wonders why I stay

But they can't know the deep set bond between the two of us

I tell them all there is nothing you can to do help or break our sacred bond

I cannot leave her, my first true love

She know me like no other can or ever will

She's in my mind, my heart, my body

Always there, always present, impossible to separate

My twin, my friend, my one Adviser, She cannot, will not lie to me

I love her and she loves me, which is how I know it was meant to be

Never in life shall we part, in sickness and in health,

Til death do us part.

Though at times she hurts me, I cannot leave my love

I sometimes want to cry, to scream and shout,

But I love her, need her, she get me through each day, each hour, minute, second.

I cannot leave her til she leaves me.
