Two Friends

65 years ago i was intoduced to someone.
Then we became very good friends and he was the only one .
We spent together some good times and some bad,
He cheered me up in his own way when i was feeling sad.

Together for 65 years but one day he had to go,
I was very sad and distraught but he had no comfort to show.
I had known this for long that one day he would leave me,
And when this would happen, I would cease to be.
And so finally the day when he was gone,
Miserable was what I felt ; there would never be another dawn,
I was thrust into darkness, without any light.
I stood there on the cold surface with my eyes shut tight.

From the darkness came someone and greeted me with a bow
He promised me he'll never leave me and we are the best of friends now.
