What Is Friendship

friendship can be great
looking when will I find you
will that be today
are you now looking for me
will our search go on and on


there you stood looking
oh you came out of no where
what a big surprise
our friendship is a flower
fun and laughs are everywhere


our fun and laughs turn
it all goes so very wrong
hurt and pain from words
tears running like a river
why did our friendship go bad

Unfortunately, such is the way of things, too frequently for our liking. Yet if you find but one true friend, another may surely follow in time.

Sorry that a friendship went wrong, but if you were able to make one friend, you can always make another. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Sara K

Unfortunately, that is sometimes the case, more often than we would like. Oh that forever oscillating human heart -- hesitant to start...and then, Puff! When will we learn? Well said, Paula.
