Take Our Friendship to the Very End

I'll never really be free again

I hope after our talks, you'll understand as my best friend

I feel alone, useless and scared inside

Most of the time, only hanging by a tie

I'm trapped by the confines of my new mind

Never again to find an independent time

Many won't understand in the end

But I'm hoping, you'll carry on and tend to the few things which meant a lot

As that is all I've got

To insist you have responsibilities which I began

Please don't be mad at me, not here at the end

You and I have come a long way

I'm sorry, I just couldn't stay to play

I shall wait for you on the other side

Where we will all rejoin after this long ride

Smelling the daisies, and guess what, no one there will think we are crazy

We'll see Thor, Venus, Bently and Jake

They'll lick our faces and raise their paws for a shake

Just know I am free of the pain

Which should be a relief, keeping you from going insane

The many things I did not do

I hope you'll continue, with John too

All I ever wanted was love

In the end, you gave it, with kit gloves

Although I was not your wife

I hope you'll look back on the strife

Smile and know,

it was just life
