Precious Gift

We all need someone To trust throughout life But like a needle in the dark True friends are hard to find I’m thankful that you’re always there On days when love absorbs me And my soul is immersed in bliss With all its beauty and glory Through to days when sorrow numbs me And I’m overwhelmed with grief My heart aches so painfully As I weep over deceit During these diverse times You are always there Guiding me through darkness Offering your compassion and care Because in the end life rewards us And seems to make amends By granting us a valuable gift The precious gift of friends
