Ode to a Friend

Lisa Stanley

All of the words that pour

From the lips of a startled lass

Are full of tears, and pain and loss

And all that life can bear

But for you Mclane I will share a light

A hope of a brighter world

I love you dear and always will

Till the end of time

So smile for me as I try my best to make

A world of my own

And I will wish that happiness arrives

To each of our own hearts

For what we have taken no one should bear

And never live again

The years of tears and our broken hearts

Will heal with passing of time

And each will find the love of someone

Who truly shares our love

Who know what the New Year brings

But there is no looking back

No looking back
