True Friendship

TRUE FRIENDSHIP We met by a click of a mouse We are friends after all We sought for joy and solace We both give it all If she could ever be the heel I’m wing to be the sole She is right there I know May be trying to think Perhaps of it tomorrow If it will fade and sink But how can I let her know I’m not a castle built on sand I’m this one standing on a rock But that too, she won’t understand I feel I should tell her more Or even the stand of my vow I could say look! “My friend Your way will be my way Ruth and Naomi we sh’ll be Treading the vast lonely land” May be she will live to see That I don’t want to be a false friend I pray by the grace of my lord That she live to weigh my word Because it comes not, from near Not from the tip of my tongue For it comes after a deep breath Through the walls of my lungs.
