Friendship

In the barren desert,
I wander with thirst,
Where like an oasis
Is your friendship

In the biting chill of winter,
When I shiver with cold,
What gives me warmth
Is your friendship

When I go blind,
In the darkness of my mind,
Like a beam of light
Is your friendship

When my heart has pain,
And eyes have tears,
What gives me comfort
Is your friendship

I've always got good,
At times even best,
And one of the best
Is your friendship
