Friends Forever!

Written with a penSealed with a kiss

If you are my friend,Please answer this:

Are we friends or are we not?You told me once, but I forgot.

So tell me now and tell me true,So I can say, I am here for you.Of all the friends I’ve ever met,You’re the ones I won’t forget.

If I die before you do, I’ll go to Heaven

And then wait for you.
