I remember now with a look back in time <br />A look at the friendship we used to have <br />It was so happy shiny and good <br />Then suddenly it went from good to bad <br /> <br />Because of me and what I caused <br />That friendship slipped and dwindled <br />Now I stop open my eyes and pause <br />Perhaps now can the friendship be rekindled? <br /> <br />An extra help and an extra push <br />I need just to get through anymore <br />No smiles just tears are all I have <br />I'm nothing of what I was before <br /> <br />I've slipped away into depression <br />I do not like it not a bit <br />But with a friend to reverse recession <br />Perhaps I can clime out of it <br /> <br />So what do you think what do you say <br />Will you once perhaps again <br />Grab on to my hand and give a lift today <br />And be with me the best of friends<br /><br />Matt Burgett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/best-of-friends-4/
