My Best Friend

Written by: Wilfred Mellers, Thursday, April 8,2010 @ 9: 40 PM





I had a reason once upon a time before

Now we share those reasons no more

Couldn’t figure out what was worth fighting for

Do I still worship her? Yes I am sure



Here is the skinny and the plane truth

In America I had wasted my youth

Can't find any incentives to return at all

Here I can finally stand real tall



I grew tired of being in a pack

Nothing is left to draw be back

I will be back but not just yet

My mind is fluid and not truly set



This is all I can tell so I hope all is well

My true friends my mind does dwell

Spinning my wheels was never too smart

Love ones will always hold a place in my heart



All my friends I miss you so

Fondness more than you’ll ever know

You’ve changed my frown into a smile

You’ve made my existence worthwhile



God placed you in my life for a special reason

You have helped me weathered my worst season

This I say without any reservations

You will hold my greatest admiration's



Not too many I can call a friend

You are truly an angel and godsend

You were there when I felt like dying

You concerns taught me to keep trying



Thank you for you have made me glad

You cared when no one else had

You’re my best friend I do think of

You my cohorts are the ones I do love



True friends I’ve found

No matter the distance I’ll always be around

In an ocean of tears I’ll never let you drown

Your life preserver for I’ll never let you down
