I walked many paths to reach where I belong
Been through many trials, who knew I could be so strong
I'm glad I led a life so full with so few regrets
Taking the initiative and not hedging any bets
I've made a few mistakes along the way
But always true to myself and my friends, is what I know they'd say.
No front, no disguise, no attempt to be part of any pack
Proud to be me and not bothered by whispers behind my back
I can look back and know I had many a true friend
Loyalties built of truth and trust and a shoulder upon which to depend
Now that the time to leave is very close to hand
My friends gather round, joining from across the land
In their prayers and thoughts I don't want any to be sad
Rather to reflect and say 'he was the best friend I ever had.'
