Friendship, friendship.
Everyone has one, and even more.
But not all do enjoy,
Not all benefit.
Friendship is a mutual pact.
I gain, you gain. I give, you give.
Tis not complete
when only one party gives or gains.
Be not the parasite, the other, a host.
Give as you receive;
Lest they be grieved,A
nd there appear a chasm that even time can’t heal.
