I NEED MY FRIENDS

By: Athena Antonia Menis

I need my friends to survive this world,
to help me seek my goals.
I need my friends to help me through,
and encourage me greatly.
I need my friend to keep me up,
and never put me down.
I need my friends to cherish me,
and bring their love around.
I need my friends to understand,
to acknowledge and forgive me.
I need my friends to know what's right,
and help me make it easy.
I need my friends to make me glad,
to trust and hold me.
I need my friends to stay with me,
to love and hold me.
