Candles

Broken vows and shattered dreams Bright future that suddenly dims The heaviness of pain and sorrow Making you feel like there’s no tomorrow You start feeling you’re all alone Facing this cruel world on your own Everything is looking so bleak You feel your soul getting very weak At times like these just close your eyes Listen to these words so wise Touch a friend and see the spark Friendship is like a candle in the dark Touch more friends and it gets brighter Making you feel a whole lot better Until suddenly it’s dark no more You have finally reached the shore So when darkness falls do not fear Think of friends who are sincere Just reach out and touch a friend Someone who will stand by you till the end Let their laughter ring like bells Light your way with friendship candles
