FOR ALWAYS

I do remember…
I did not forget…
… I have a candle lit…
in its dancing light… I see
What friendship means to me
It is a heart not held back
… and given with its all
The shadows on the wall
… are of a departing one dear…
… leaving all memories here…
Friendship is something you earn
Dreaming… I watch
the candle flame burn…
