In The Days Ahead
In The Days Ahead
Be with me when I need a ear
to listen to words that are never easy
Be with me in my triumphs
hugging me until it hurts
because I have experienced the other side
the silence that screams
the ear I never could find
and life was dark
full of blackness
until one day I reached out
and to my surprise found a sturdy hand
Be with me through all fear and doubt
because in my skin
I find time and again
just how imperfect I am...so human
for my blood is shed
at the first deep cut
all I need is a true friend
the rest along the way I will figure out
my confidant I tell my secrets
in your head you hold my life's journal
so happy to finally know
to feel comfortable in the days ahead
Be with me forever in this life
be with me in death
our souls forever connected
that is the bond between true friends
