The Chosen Family

Friends may come and go
but family is here to stay,
you can see your friends when the sky is blue
but where do they go when the sky turns grey?

Traveling down your troublesome road
you feel alone and afraid,
your friends seem to have taken a different path
but your family is in front of you showing you the way.

When the road of Life takes a turn
for the worst and trouble is abound,
you stop your journey, as you whimper
you fall to the ground.

You look for help and your
friends have turned and walked away,
it is then your family appears
to show you the proper way.

With a vote of confidence
and a sincere pat on the back,
you smile again as you
continue your journey without slack.

It is then you realize that family
will always be there in the end,
family doesn’t mean only by blood
but chosen family that are close friends.
