A Friend For Life

Are you my friend?
My companion, through good times and bad,
My friend, my buddy, through happiness and sad
Beside me you stand, beside me you walk
You’re there to listen; you're there to talk, you’re there to create happiness
With smiles, without pain, without fear or tears
I know you will be there throughout the years
You are an all good around good friend to me and I am grateful
Remember, no man or woman is a failure who has a friend


Yes, I am your friend
To be your companion is an honor as you take me as your mate
There will be no sad times, only happy ones that will paint memories to be cherished
Together we stand, walking hand in hand as we dance through life and journey through time
I promise to listen with my heart not just my head
To listen and comprehend, to speak with happiness in my voice, to be compassionate in my tone
To embrace each day with a smile as I plant my seeds upon your life while sprouting yours
No pain shall enter this union; only tears of joy shall fall to these cheeks
I will be like the mighty oak, rooted and grounded for life
Forever you took my hand knowing it rest upon mine
