Old Friend

Oh dear friend, please do not fret,

For I know the struggles that you have met,

You've faced hardships, trials, and pain,

Yet here you stand, strong and sane.

Your journey has not been an easy one,

But you've persevered, and your battles won,

You've weathered storms and fought your way,

Through the darkness, to a brighter day.

With every step, you've grown and learned,

And in your heart, a fire has burned,

A flame of hope that never dies,

That lifts you up and helps you rise.

So keep on walking, brave and bold,

With every step, you break the mold,

For you are strong and you are brave,

And there's nothing in this world you cannot brave.
