Friendship

Friends are forever
Or so it's said
But what happens when friendship ends?

Do you stop to remember
The things we shared?
The clothes
The food
The secrets...

Do you stop to think
Why did we part?
What was the fight about?
Was it that important?

We all have those precious few friends
The friends to the end
That we love so much
We cherish their thoughts
We cherish their feelings

We worry so when harms near
I know I have friends
I can't live without
But do they feel the same
When they fall asleep at night?

I always wonder..
Do they care?
Are they there?
When I need them most?

Only one way to find out
And that's for sure.
It's to be there
When they need me
And see if the kindness is returned.
