Our Good Friend

Our Good Friend

Where have you gone?

Its been so long.

Ever since you’ve left

There has been murder,

and suicide.

There has been theft,

and pottery.

 It has become impossible to trust.

We wear knife vests and shields on our backs

Our good friend, that everyone lacks

 

Our good friend

When you were here

 Always to stay

 You brought aid,

and comfort.

We shared bread,

 and gave shelter.

We trusted others with our lives

Our backs bare

Our good friend, when you were there

 

Our good friend we need you back

Forever to stay

You may never return

But an ember of your fire may burn

Or we will freeze without you

There is still hope, we might make do

All in all, that is left to see.

 

To our good friend, Humanity.
