Remembering a Friend

Remember once you were my friend
I’m quite sure you were
It was oh so very long ago
To my hearts memory I defer
We once laughed a very lot
I’m very sure that’s true
And then we went our separate ways
As people often do
Our acquaintance was not long; I’d call it brief
But that’s not what really mattered
It’s what you leave in another’s heart
And it was joy you scattered
