CHAPTER FIVE

Flash 55

~Friend~

 

For all the days of beauty

your friendship's given me

For all the tears you wiped away

so unselfishly

For all the times you held my hand in

sickness and in health

The times that you cried with me

when nothing else could help

I know now...

We will be friends

until this life ends

 

 

 

YOUR TURN

ENJOY
