Friends
Ah, life, indefinable concept,
The engine that roars, purrs or dies;
Inspiring or damning or neutral,
Sincere or a tissue of lies.
My friend, I must tell of emotions,
Crush adversity into the dirt;
We should dance like there's nobody watching,
And love like it's not going to hurt.
People say friends should hold hands
To show they eternally care;
But real friends don't, they already know
The other hand always is there.
I love you but we're not in love,
My soul mate who so comprehends;
We need only be there for each other,
For such is the nature of friends.
