It Was Not My Fault

I'm sorry, Friend!
You will never forgive me.
It was not my fault, Dear!
It was the need of the situation or my compulsion.

You can break our bond,
I will not.
l can live with your last smile,
Why you hate me for a mile?

You have many reasons to angry,
Can you find any reason to talk?
And stand together yet not too near together,
For the pillars of the Friendship stand apart.

Do you know what is Friendship?
A moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Love one another,
But make not a bond of love.

Friendship gives naught but itself,
And takes naught but from itself.
It Possesses not
Nor would it be possessed.

And I can't really help,
But say that its Friendship won again.
You would seek it a piece,
And its most relieving pleasure.
