Friends who come and go,
they make the smiles then dim the glow,
they make summer then suddenly make it snow,
thinking blood is not thicker than water,
thinking blood is not always red,
lovers who knock and don’t stay for long,
strangers who give you a peck and leave you with hope,
friends who don’t fill your pockets but fill every fibre in you with happiness,
lovers who give you hope to love, and love to make you hopeless,
thinking love is love, when hope is hopeless,
break a heart, break a soul, break a mind,
sleeping on an empty stomach and hunger doesn’t care,
family that shields you, guard you, and shelter you from the scotching sun,
thinking blood is thicker than water,
thinking blood is always red,
the songs mosquitos sing, annoying,
but we clap with the rhythm they flow with, surprisingly,
strangers in life,
stranger becoming a wife,
people in your life come and go,
that’s part of life, you should know,
look who came in my life!
