To My Friends
To all my friends from over the years
Ones that shared my laughter and tears
I have remembered most and forget some
I reach for the ones I have lost and embrace the others to come
I am glad to have you all in my heart
It helps to ease my pain when it starts
Everyone has helped me out in one way or more
They helped me up and opened life’s door
To my closest friends I honor the most
I open my bottled feeling and proclaim a toast
Aaron you are my first close friend
You and I will be friends till the end
I have known you since the forth grade
I sorry that those times had to fade
It been a away since we have seen each other
I ask about you when I see your father or mother
Just remember I will stand by you ever
And know we are best friends forever
AJ you are just one of a kind
People like you are truly hard to find
You have saved me from the darkness in my soul
You never tried to, but you made me feel whole
We have done so many things in the last two years
We have done dumb things and shared death’s tears
Even when we are so many miles away
Are friendship stays strong past those yesterdays
Chantal you have always been right
I learned so much from you on those late nights
You have taught me so very much
It seemed you and me were in common touch
I can’t thank you enough for taking me to prom
It helped me make my wounded heart calm
I am glad to know you are doing just fine
I am sure we will hang out farther down the line
Cindy you are just beautiful and wise
I would say that are friendship was quite a surprise
By some kind of will we were brought to each other
I sense that in the future we will need one another
I can’t help but thank you for the things you have done
You have listened to me and we shared that stuff called fun
Friends is what we are and maybe we will be more
I guess I will wait and see what God has in store
Cory you are the guardian angel of my soul
When you left, the world became so dull
I was angry and mixed up and lost for a while
I think of you now, and can’t help but smile
At the time I was selfish about you going away
I was so caught up, I forgot about the ways you would stay
I know you are watching me from far above
I can some days feel you, I can feel the warmth of love
You have made me into the man I am today
Just wait for me, I will be with you again some day
You five are my closest friends
And I hope that we will stay connected, long past the end
