It's a good man that you are
I truely never expected to find a friend in youI was only being friendly, as I often doI caused you unhappiness, and that was not my planI simply thought of you, a kindhearted manI sit and feel so lonelyAt times i don't know whyI guess I should get over itThe way I sit and cryI know I am a softieDeep inside my heartI often want to toughen upBut don't know where to startI worry about most everythingI cannot seem to stopIf it isn't something seriousIt seems so in my heartI'm sorry for my actionsI did not mean you harmThe last thing I wantedWas to cause you any alarmI would not cause you sorrowNot in my wildest dreamsI did not mean to overwhelmYet I did, so it seems...Anyway I thank youFor all your sweet compassionI never thought you'd care about meAs no one ever else hasI can only say I understandThese matters of the heartIf you should ever want to talkYou only need to start...As always I am left aloneI really do not mindAs over the years I have foundI'm content, I'm just that kind.No matter that I reached to youI know I over stretchedI should have kept my mouth shutIt would have been the bestToo late now, I have involved youIn matters of my lifeNext time I will knowIt isn't really rightYou are a kindred spiritI know it deep insideMany things that you have sharedI recognize in MY lifeI did not mean to interferreI know that you believe it's trueOr you never would have answered meI'm sorry if I bothered youI will simply say good byeBefore I go to farI enjoyed our conversationIt's a good man that you are

Very giving and thoughtful poem, I'm sure he enjoyed the conversation too and that it was anything but a bother to him. When people share they often learn things they didn't realize about themselves and real sharing is rare. -
