The Further Words I Write

You may take an interest In the further words I write Because no one is as important As you are in my life. You showed me a friend Is one who stands by thick and thin And by being one to me I do certainly win. Once when I thought I was right And you knew I was wrong You did not shun me like most You made me feel I belonged. When they said I had lied And you believed my words were true You then confronted them all And you made them all fools. You were always there To stand by my side And there to touch my last tear When I had finally cried. And when I thought I was not loved You lived I love you So I will end these final words With, "Friend I love you too!" Brenda Elizabeth Rose
