Friendship

There are times when all we know
Is strange to us or gone 
There are times when all we have
Is the knowledge of our past
And who we were
So many things happen during our lifetimes;
We are ever maturing, ever learning,
Ever seeking our dreams 
And sometimes it seems 
That our dreams are beyond our reach-
That life is just some tasteless nightmare
Sent to warn us of what could have been
And there are times when we grasp our dreams firmly
And know them to be our only surity
My dream is the friendship between you and me.
