*Dedicated to my friends because I love them all so much!*



I know the world could tear me down,

I know my misery could swallow me whole.

But I'll wait patiently for the helping hand,

And with their words, replenish my soul.

No matter how many others walk away,

I know my own will stay by my side.

Our words can tell our own story

Better than any tears we'll cry.

They look into my eyes and they know

That I have secrets deep within.

They're the only ones I trust to have

The inner pieces of me below my skin.

Time has passed and bonds have changed,

People have questioned whether or not we're real.

They may try and tear us apart,

But there's a certain love that no one can steal.

They themselves are the meaning of forever,

Because lovers will come and burn away.

I can always trust that they'll have my defense,

Their care and affection will never fade.

Thank you all for convincing me

That I was perfect the way I was.

Always know that you'll never leave my mind,

You'll always be in my heart because



I will always love you all the way you love me.
