Poem for my best friend

Hey I was able to make a poem for lit class. It supposed to be in an iambic pentameter form, but it really does not follow the syllable coun't *hehe* screw that I can't write properly with it. So here it goes hope you folks like it:

You picked me up when I was down and dirty
You called my name when nobody wanted to
You held my hand when I was lonely
You painted my day when it was blue

You whispered to me when everybody yelled
You came to me when nobody was there
You cleared my mind when I dwelled
You gave to me that what is rare

I thank God he gave me to you
I thank the stars they guided me to you
