FOREVER FRIENDS

It’s like a journey that just never ends
This I feel whenever I’m with friends

Running, following and also pursued
All grief removed as gladness issued
As thro’ this path, bad luck suspends

Even occupied in quarrels and fights
But instantly like best buddies unites
Who in bad times stands and defends

Sharing the bond of faith and of trust
With love and care from heart’s crust
As sacrifice and respect subtly blends

Playing together, winning and losing
Smiling at loss seems quite amusing
Fact of it now the mind comprehends

Hanging about in groups quite often
Now I wish, if that can again happen
Past reminiscence suddenly ascends

The bets and challenges still I recall
Sharing amid all stuffs big and small
Those lost moments still apprehends

Times change and with it everything
The pleasure the reminiscence bring
Of old pals turned to forever friends
