Words To My Friend

I didn’t sleep but two winks last night, Because with you I do not wish to fight! Our friendship had a very strange start, I never thought as close as we were, we’d ever part! Through all the good times we’ve had, I never would f dreamt things would have become this bad! The root of all evil is money, I never meant to hurt you honey! Your friendship has meant the world to me, I hope one day it can be fixed, you see! I opened up my heart completely to you, Something I NEVER, EVER do! You’ve never done anything, have only been so nice, Lately, for some reason, I’ve been cold as ice! When tears ran down my face, like a water fall, All I had to do was pick up a phone and call! When you were down, I’d lend you my ear, If nothing else, just someone to hear! Someone to talk to something to share, With open arms, because we both care! When Ronnie was sick, I did not stray, Nothing in this world could have kept me away! You were there for me when I had my last baby, I never once thought, you were my friend MAYBE! The men we love, we have married, Even when things were bad with them, together theirr burdens we have carried! We’ve had so many laughs and smiles, It seems like we’ve gone on for many miles! Like two peas in a pod, we once were, What happened to us, is there even a cure!? We’ve been friends for nearly eight years, Now our friendship has been broken, bringing us to tears! You’ve been there for me, and I you for so long, How could things have gone this wrong!? Most people would say, “Friends come and go”, I thought and still do, we had so much more to show We’ve been there for each other, through thick and thin, I never thought that the DEVIL, could possibly win! I must not be in my right mind, To have hurt my friend, who has been nothing but kind! I only want the best for you, within your life, I never meant to make you feel, like I’ve cut you with a knife! The almighty dollar it has cost, Now a “TRUE” friend, have I really lost!?
