Age

Age, friendship's only enemy.

It separates people from wanting to be 	
           friends.

If they are different aged, they'd not 
           want to hang out.

As friends age, their likes and dislikes 	
           change.

Causing them to no longer want to hang
           out.

Then, age can render friends old and 	
          frail.

'Til the point of death, separating them 	
          permanently.

Age is friendships one true enemy.

This is so true. "Age is nothing but a number" is a phrase i wish most people would abide by because you're only as old or young as you feel and should not allow it to come between two ppl.
