Friend

I am held here,
Drifting in space,
Never too near,
Never touching your face,

Masking your sorrow,
Feeling your pain,
Catching your tears,
That fall in the rain,

I'm not always wanted,
You push me away,
Tell me to go,
But I will always stay,

Sometimes things look good,
Thats when happiness shines,
So I share your joy,
And all the fine wines,

Part of my life,
That makes me smile,
It's always the same,
Even after a while,

When you're confused,
You look to me,
I help work out,
Who you should be,

So don't forget,
I'll be there till the end,
Just me and you,
The best of friends.
