When days are filled with sunshine
How close we hold a friend,
It's good to share the laughter
And dreams that have no end.



But when the days are shadowed,
And touched with pain or grief,
The bonds of friendship tighten
Almost beyond belief.



The burdens aren't so heavy
When someone takes your hand,
And not a word is needed
For true friends to understand.



The world would be more lonely
In sunny hours or grey,
Without the bonds of friendship
To help us every day!

I don't aim to sound insensitive to your feelings or anything, but what exactly is the purpose of this thread..Sharing mushy/tacky forwards or talking about the impact your friends have had on you?.. Btw Im sure the thread starter had a totally different idea when he started this thread..Anyway without undermining the value of a good friendship let me tell you that cliched forwards do not make friendships and youd be real lucky not to lose friends because of them
