The Rainbow Of Friendship
Fear is something that should be hidden in the darkness,
along with the hatred and all of the sadness.
The colors of emotions are all clear to see,
the changing of your moods for others to see.
Love is something that should glow bright red,
for the one you love is always in your heart and head.
Jealousy is something that is seen in shades of green,
trying to hide the envy, but others have seen.
Friendship is something that should be seen in white,
pure as the snow, and always ready to take flight.
Sadness is something that is seen in shades of blue,
for the heart is crying and the feelings are true.
Laughter is something that is seen in the brightest of colors,
for the warmness it brings, and all of the smiles.
Hatred is something that is seen in purest shades of black,
for with it, the doom for you, love you will lack.
All of the colors in life help us build who we are,
we have the laughs, the smiles, the fears, and the scars.
Every color has a reason for being,
an emotion or feeling worthy of seeing.
With all of the beautiful colors in the world,
we put them together in The Rainbow Of Friendship.

Special Friends
Special friends should be nurtured, either old or new,
they should be loved, true friends in life are very few.
The beauty of friendship is around us every day,
do you stay to find out, or turn around to walk away.
A true friend will be there in your darkest time of need,
lending you a shoulder to lean on, to their heart they heed.
A true friend will hold your hand, when others turn away,
why are people like this, I really don't know what to say.
Maybe they've never had a special friend touch their heart,
they've been there for a short time, heart broken totally apart.
A true friend holds a special key, and a special trust,
knowing what's in your heart, loving them is a must.
A special friend will always try to protect you from hurt,
standing tough and true, not turning around to desert.
A special friend knows just how to pick you back up,
in times of need, they are always there to be your backup.
A beginning is there, hoping and praying that it never ends,
because in life we can't walk alone, we all need Special Friends.

My Friend
Hurting someone close to you,
is the hardest thing to ever do.
Friendship lost, the shedding of tears,
no one there to calm the growing fears.
A new love to be found,
an old love now buried in the ground.
Intentions we always the best,
the pain I felt, hit deep within the chest.
How could I hurt someone,
that I called my friend.
A journey we went through together,
has now come to a crashing end.
My heart is just aching,
from the pain of it breaking.
Now this friendship we have,
I am trying dearly to mend.
Forever I will love you,
because you are my friend.
