#**
You are my friend…..**
One of maybe two or three
I give that label to
and now you’re moving far away
I don’t know what to do
Of all the people in my life
you're one I like the most
*And when you’re gone I fear I’ll be
a lost and empty ghost*
***In rough times you could make me laugh
No matter if crying
That’s how it was for you and I
Song birds always singing***
Seldom in life those come along
with whom you just connect
No effort needed to belong
Each other, you both get
In a dark sky, you’re my North Star
Beacon of light and hope
But now it’s just an empty space
Left with six feet of rope
And selfishly, in fact I'd do
about most anything
If I could get you not to leave
Forever we could sing
But doing so would mean that you
Would live life in a cage
Taking away what makes you, You
It wouldn’t be the same
I’m not that selfish even though
the pain rips at my core
I’d take it for eternity
If it meant you weren’t sore
***My dearest friend I hope you know
I love you very much***
*And even though you won’t be close;
Can not reach out and touch*
I know we’ll talk and even see
each other time to time
When touching base or catching up
To know each other’s fine
But like a tide, sometimes in life
Friendships will ebb and flow
Each person has a life to live
And down a path we go
And even in those times when we
might drift further apart
***You’re someone I’ll always hold near
and cherish in my heart***
Fly Fly ***away now little bird
Go off and spread your wings***
And I’ll wait here till you return
When once again we sing
