FRIENDsssss

When life had turned bleak

and nothing seemed right

You became my hope

my courage and my might.

Life with its mundaness

had become banal and trite

You made me walk and said

Come on buddy its all right.

You were always besides

and wiped away my tears

had it not been you

I would have given up to my fears.

The road was never straight

Had all its curves and bents

God send you as special angels

And told me to call you "Friends".
