Friendship Trellis
Friendship Trellis
You are the trellis, I climb and flourish
Grip tight when hurricanes come sweeping
Find a calm haven in our friendship
Sole lampost to lean on in a windy street
You cheer me up whenever we meet
Pull me away from the edge of the precipice
Like a canopy shading me from the harsh sun
You are the reason why I'm still hanging on
Despite perpetual pain, long would have gone.
You stand by my side, like a sentry post
Disallowing death from knocking on my door
Gaining entry to break our lifelong bond.
