Within Friends

Black; brown; yellow or white
Wherever you came from
Rich; poor; young or old
Whoever you are

Professional, educated or not
No matter what status you are
Single, married bisexual
No matter what personality you have

We can be friends

Life is more colorful
When friends are dear and truthful
A shoulder to lean and cry on
A hand to squeeze and hold

Indeed, pals give comforts
Worth of fortunes like treasures
Whenever disagreements arise
True friends win for sure

True peers protects and cares
They understand and reassures
Forgetting any pressure
As they know all will are God's creatures

Friends are not selfish
Selfless like love in flourish
It is beyond time and description
It is far from extinction
