Never Thought I Would Make a Friend Again

never thought i would make a friend again everyday i am in kindergarten raising my hand to be chosen i am again a space alien with flatulence and bad halitosis yet i now have a friend and replies now come with air conditioning never thought i would make a friend again everyday i reach for a sky with barb wire around every temperamental cloud i am again a freak show in a cage on a forgotten road to nowhere yet i now have a friend and replies now come with unobstructed views never thought i would make a friend again everyday i walk on a beach overrun with careless seaweed that frigidly teases and bullies i am again a quack job with too many bills and not enough oars yet i now have a friend and replies now come with pure sincerity and unconditional love
