Friendship In Poetry
We two have been through it all
The time has come,
The path not tread,
We two have been through it all,
To always lend that helping hand,
Just look over your shoulder,
That if you should protect me,
Over the mountains,
This is our friendship,
Winds Of Change
Four travelers walk the worn bend,
The tallest, broad shouldered, warm and kind,
The youngest tells of the journey East,
The night has fallen, the trail pitch-black;
The golden hunter is next to tell
The burning branches spark and glow;
They'll separate to say goodbyes,
The dark haired woman sounds her warrior cry;
The Path
I walked the path alone today
That joy in your eyes;
I wished for those best of times

I've seen you rise,
You've seen me fall
And one thing's certain
I can say it's true -
I wouldn't have made it,
Without you.
We know what to do
For many a battle
We've made it through.
And with each other,
We have a bond
For life and death -
and there, beyond.
The road ahead
Is calling us to come,
The faults we've made
With sword, with blade,
The victories we've won.
You've seen me rise,
I've seen you fall
Whenever I have need you
Or you have need me,
I pray we have the courage
To keep all safe and free.
Even when the sun has gone
For we know, that when together,
We can right the worldly wrong.
I'll be there
It's perfectly natural,
And equally fair
I'll keep your guard
Our lives are a gamble,
But we hold the cards.
Across the seas
I'll keep your guard,
If you'll watch for me.
And how it came to be
I'll watch for you,
And you'll watch for me.
The day's adventure at and end.
They'd give their lives and hands to lend;
to each the other, a dear friend.
His closest friend walks by his side.
The other, a woman, leather-clad in black;
The bard beside her guards her back.
And how her heart was now at ease;
To shed her haunting memories,
she'd lead a life of love and peace.
There is no light to call them back.
They gather 'round an open flame,
to share their stories, joy, and pain.
Of the heaven he'd lived from defeating hell;
And the bard recalls she's part of that soul
The Guardian of Light who'd saved their world.
The hunter and the bard both know
That nothing in a smile can halt time's flow
And come the dawn, they'll have to go.
She'll want to smile, but she'll have to sigh;
And on her lips he'll lay a kiss,
to let her know that she'll be missed.
Beckons the bard to the horse they'll ride.
Two heros watch them fade 'round the bend,
Chance winds that blew - parted them in the end.
There was no friend to guide my way.
What I'd fought for...was lost
and there was no way to bring you back.
the warmth in your smile
I'd taken for granted
Though all the while
that we had together.
And as I tred, winded and lonely,
I ask you, friend,
to remember me.
