If Ever...

Friend, Sister, Love.

Friends 'till the end,
Help each other mend.
When the tree is too weak,
And just cannot bend.

A crack may occur,
Or even a break.
But this true healing friendship,
Will act as a stake.

When the waves of sorrow,
Make you feel like you're drowning,
A friend paddles up,
And keeps you from frowning.

When the struggles of life,
Seem too much to bear,
A truly real friend,
Will ask you to share.

I hope that we have this,
My friend, you and I,
An incredible friendship,
Building more by and by.

You're more than a friend,
Like a sister you are,
And I hope you know that,
Either close by of far,

If ever I hurt you,
If ever you cry,
I hope that you know,
You can come tell me why.

It would pain me to know,
Of one second you suffer,
Or that I made your life,
Not better, but tougher.

I'm here if you need me,
Please can call anytime.
Although we don't talk much,
You're still on my mind.
 
We're friends 'till the end,
Helping each other mend.
When the tree is too weak,
And just cannot bend.
