I wrote this poem to tell my friends how much they mean to me. I have never been good at telling them, so I thought that a poem would be the best way. I gave them this for part of their Christmas.

Friends Forever
by Ashley Benson
My friends are so very dear to me,
Through the good and bad they’ve been there,
Laughter or tears we’ve been through it all,
But no matter what they stood by me,
Sharing in my joy, or lending a shoulder to cry on.

Building memories that will last a life time.
The fun times and laughter that we have shared
Are happy memories that will always be there.
When I was sad, they have always cheered me up.

My friends are true friends, not just passing by,
But will be there through out the years.
I can’t think of more perfect friends,
To share my goals and dreams with.

Because my Forever Friends
Are the only ones I will ever need,
I don’t know if they can tell
Just how much they mean to me.

How important their friendship is,
And how much I care,
For they are what true friendship is about.
They’re there when I need them,
And I love them all.
