I want to be your friend Us together to the end What do you say Can it be this way That is how it used to be Not you, not me, but we A new way to look at things Give new meaning to these rings The symbol of our love View the tapestry we have wove The circle will not be broken If we honor the vows we have spoken I promise to you These things I will do Love, honor, cherish, and accept Setting aside the tears I have wept So that we may look ahead And lay to rest the dead The broken shattered dreams Split apart at their seams Never to be mended For there are new ones to be tended They were built by us two For me and for you Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W. Smith |

Denise...thank you. Sven...thank you. Yes, I have found my voice and it is clearer than ever. My muse is back again and it is like old times. All I write is inspired by a very special person and it is because of his love that these words flow so freely from my heart. He has once again opened the door and placed his heart next to mine. For that, I am blessed. Marge...thank you very much. Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W. Smith |

Cheryl...thank you and I am trying to avoid one at the moment. It is one of my favorites too. Terry...thank you. My muse seems to be singing to your soul frequently. That is nice to hear. Very sweet!!  -------------------------------------------------- Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W.

Sven....thank you and yes it is amazing what it will do for your life and writing. I guess he was there all along...I just was not in tune with what he was saying, but now I am starting to hear him loud and clear!!! Nightloy...thank you and I believe in trying to iron out the differences first. I agree too many people run to divorce court at the drop of a hat. -------------------------------------------------- Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W.
