Friends Like Us

Friends like us 


Friends like us, 

are very hard to find. 

We are a rare combination, 

you and I. 

We've been through some rough times, 

but the good times have surpassed, 

we've made our memories, 

for life they will last. 

Our strengths keep us together. 

our weaknesses make us strong. 

Side by side we will conquer our fears, 

and make all our dreams come true. 

Friendship has a new definition; 

when they talk about friends like you. 

You have been my shoulder to cry on, 

my hug when I was down. 

I don't know how I would get through life, 

if every you weren't around. 

I know I have been there for you, 

it is written in your eyes, 

we've based our friendship on reality, 

we don't tell each other lies. 

I hope that when we are older, 

and our lives are in full swing, 

We can show our children, 

the joy that true friends bring.
