True Friends


When life seems to throw you down

With tosses and turns,

Bumps and bruises,

Sticks and stones.

To what you seek a haven from.

No matter what happens

Your true friends have you

To hold no matter how blue.

There are no set boundaries to rely on,

There are no feats too large to take on.

If you can dream it;

You can achieve it,

And you shall achieve it.

Life is too short to waste not making a mark.

Life is too long to be alone in the dark.

Do not fear the darkness though

For a small light followed by millions will come through.

To shower you in their warmth,

And give you courage to overcome any obstacle.
