I love you not for what you are,
but for what I am when I am with you.

I love you not only for what you have made of yourself,
but for what you are making of me.
any creed could have done to make me good,
and more than any fate could have done to make me happy.

You have done it without a touch,
without a word, without a sign.

You have done it by being yourself
Perhaps that is what being a friend means, after all.
