Friends Are Forever

but dates come and go.

Even the ready have to change plans,

even the loving are lost in their fans,

even the caring will lose all control,

until the unfaithful die with no soul,

 

breathing is living, but dying is life,

broken up pieces, and cut with a knife,

the rich and the famous have broken days too,

the lost and the lonely are sinning, not few,

 

friends are the foes, and enemies cry,

losing the loving and that's not a lie,

boys come and go but the friends always stay,

though you pass life with each embarrassing day.

Aw, that made me feel warm inside.

I love the fact that everything rang naturally; you had none of that "going out of your way to make the rhyme work" crap.
