Friendship
The friends we care for deeply
We do not truly know
Until there comes a trial
Which forces us to grow
And in our worst despairs,
Our greatest fears and pains,
With us, in these, they share,
Inspiring us to rise again
In matters large and small,
Through wounded feelings deep,
In little unimportant squalls,
Their company we keep
If there is purpose in this life
Few things can be more true
Than those who come to understand
The heart concealed in you.
