With memories rich, I take my leave,
No storm can tarnish what I retrieve.
Unforgettable moments, a treasure to perceive,
This journey, my heart will not deceive.
Friendship's tongue speaks in silent cues,
Not in mere words, but in shared views.
A sheltering tree, where hearts infuse,
Love's essence, devoid of wings' abuse.
To fathom and to be understood,
The hallmark of friendship, pure and good.
Not a lesson from textbooks, understood,
But in life's trials, where bonds withstood.
Friendship, a sacred, special kind,
Acceptance whole, flaws intertwined.
But those who falter, you will find,
Not true friends, but shadows behind.
Soul to soul, a sacred pact,
Betrayal foreign, healing exact.
Explaining it? A daunting act,
Yet God, the true friend, in fact.
In search of flawlessness, a lonesome fate,
Yet true friendship embraces every trait.
God and His universe, beyond debate,
Hold us close, in love's embrace.
In shattered images, a truth to glean,
Each shard, a friend's essence seen.
Never discard, for in-between,
Lies the bond, forever keen.
