It Only Takes One

 

It Only Takes One

When in life one friend is better than none

With one you know to life you are okay

As in realizing it only takes one

Although rough when the bonding begun

You are both still together to this day

When in life one friend is better than none

For it seems fulfillment in life is done

When to this the Lord you did pray

As in realizing it only takes one

The one lifts you with words of hope

Making life bearable when it seems hard

Giving you strength in life to cope

This care can sometimes catch you off guard

As you thought no one even cared

Especially when life has left you marred

Thankful to God the day you became paired

When in life one friend is better than none

For in life your loving care is then shared

As in realizing it only takes one

Thoughts: Sometimes one friend is all one may need in life to lift one up when one has none. Sure, one can have family or relatives that care; but, it is not the same as a friend outside of this care. And, some people have no one that cares. It's hard to share care and love when one is not receiving it themselves from a true and dear friend. Be a friend to someone and share the care and love as sometimes, it only takes one!
