Some may come

Some may go

Some may come like hurricanes or Snow Some may go with a God-like rage

But some stay

Some have a brilliant way

They work themselves into your heart

And then you love them you see

And then they are family

Not by Blood

But by Love

Not always like a gracious dove

You will Hate

And you will fight

but don't ever fright

For they will be with you

Even in the hard times 

When life seems to count its nickels and dimes

They will weather the storm

And when it's the end

They will always stand by your side

As a friend
