Always Remember Friends

by Amber Lynch   May 10, 2006


Around the corner I
have a friend,
In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks
rush on,
And before I know it, a year is gone.
And I never see my old friends face,
For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just
as well,
As in the days when I rang his bell.
And he rang min but we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired people.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name.
Tomorrow I say \\\"I will call on Chad
Just to show that I\\\'m thinking of him.\\\"
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner, yet miles away,
Here\\\'s a telegram ma\\\'am, \\\"Chad died today.\\\"
And that\\\'s what we get and deserve in the end.
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
Remember to always say what you mean.
If you love someone, tell them.
Don\\\'t be afraid to express yourself.
Reach out and tell someone what they mean to you.
Because when you decide that it is the right time it might be too late.
Seize the day. Never have regrets.
And most importantly, stay close to your friends,
And family, for they have helped
Make you the person that you are
Today.
