A FRIEND

I can't take your memories
Off my heart
They're the best among my life stories
Yes, the very best part,
The part you stood up for me
Something I couldn't do for myself
Let alone someone else
The part you comfort
My fragile heart
Stopped my soul from falling apart,

Reminiscing on how we took
Our love up to the skies
Up beyond paradise
Echoing our love song over the seas
As we shine vibrantly like fire flies
You taught me self love,
Self care, patience, temperament
And showed me who I could be
Yes, you're that friend
A FRIEND indeed.
