"You Got A Friend For Life"
  by L.edwards


hand in hand in poetry land
my very closest friend
sometimes he is the only one who truly understands
i’ve watched you grow up from a little boy
to a strong grown ass man
damn...
we've known each other a minute
a relationship thats not simple
just almost understandable
held together by words, sentences
emotional fences
problems are what has bound us
and when no one esle was around for us
friendship, advice, and good conversation is what found us
lately you hit me up like
What up
you cant say hey?
we drift away for days and
always meet back around some way
but wait
i wanted to take the time out of my day
to simply say thanks
for bein everything you are
cus in my eyes you are a star
man when i was down and out
and my marriage was at its end
you were there standing tall as my only friend
had my back all the way to the end
fend for me
i know you would
cus you just like me in so many ways
look at our lives
this thing wit us is not a phase
so don’t ever think ima up and walk away
no matter what other people say
my friendship will always be that way
i know what people have put you thru
but fuck that im here for you
every time
you say man lera i quit
cant take this stupid shit
im finished wit the GS biz
im like no don’t give up
this place is what made us what we is
writing opened the door for our friendship
cant seem to write, who the hell you tryna kid?
i have opened eyes i kno what talent is
you stood strong as i fell weak
Im like BR im haven a baby
lookin for relief some kinda safety
and thats what your words gave me
told me its okay
you'd be a good mommy
when im arguing and mad
throwin a fit
you give the other half of the story
cus to look at his side its hard for me
but the right thing to do you force it upon me...
to many days you have saved me
from
my heart breaking my mind wandering from me goin to insane
yet when its my turn
lately i feel like ive been slippin
no advice givin
im sorry
my back for you hasnt been strong
i know ive been caught up in my own
but when you need me
ill always be here
dont ever think i will forget who you is
you my best friend that is ....
