Thank you, L, for your love, your affection

Two disparate souls found a deep connection

And in my darkest hours and days

You gave so much, in so many ways

And as our paths now separate

Our hearts remain entwined by fate

Your strength, character, and honesty

Have burned so brightly inside of me

I owe my life to one so dear

You gave me hope and soothed the fear

You made me who I am today

It breaks my heart to leave this way

Within my heart you will abide

Although no longer by your side

Time and distance won't erode

Our love, our dreams, our sisterhood

I leave to start a life anew

A life made possible, because of you

I love you now, and I always will

Goodbye, L, my saviour, still.
