A friend

By billy

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

A FRIENDWhen times were hard,and the going was tough.You were there when I'd had enough,I only had to ask,and you'd be by my side.Your shoulder was there for me,whenever i criedYou would do anything for me,if it would helpTo ease the pressure on myselfThere were times I thought,I couldnt go on no moreBut you showed me just what friends are for.When I was alone with just four wallsI'd pick up the phone,and give you a callYour long distance words would comfort meYou're everything a friend should beIf the roles were reversed,and you felt aloneI'd return the kindness that youve shownFor you were a friend when I was in needYes !You are a true friend indeed.
