Good Friends

Good friends are the curtains
that make up our backdrops,
that secure around us
when the applause stop
Good friends are like prisms
reflecting back to us
all of the good we never see in ourselves

They hold the good times in a candy box
They keep the memories forever in their hearts

Good friends are the melodies
that make this poem, song
that live friendship each day
in holding us up strong
Good friends are like pillows
that I cry out my losses to
that hear my unspoken fears
and try to bring me through

Good friends are the fire
that make our anger melt
that sparks alive compassion
and shares all that we've felt
Good friends are like threads of a tapestry
weaved together with our hearts,
that hold together
when all else falls apart

Good friends are the rainbows
that show a pot of gold
lodged deep within
the heart of our souls
Please forgive me
if I'm at a loss of what to say,
Good friends are like the sisters
that will never fade away.

They hold the memories in a candy box
They keep the memories forever in their hearts
Best Friends!
