Friends
My friends are my life,
they are all I have,
they are who I trust,
they are who I know.
I have very few,
with whom I’m comfortable,
I keep the number few,
and I keep those few close by.
I make my stance well known,
I let them know where I stand,
I will not decieve them,
they need to know who I am.
My friends are always there,
to give me the help I need,
and I will always help them,
as long as I am able.
I thank God for my friends,
for they’re the greatest gift,
the gift of love in life,
is more precious than all.
*Dedicated to all those I call my true friends
