they are all over
in my tinny place
they are best friends
i can't say it less
under my pillows
over the beds
on the floors
at the kitchen counters
covering my desk
they stood by me
as other friends left
resemble bridges
link me with past
between me and world
for the challenges ahead
they stay with me
keeping me company
on days of sorrow
so my loneliness
sources of motivation
never let me down
cultivate my behavior
escort me through life
teach me rights from wrongs
never stab me,
insincere from behind
they are such a relief
for any ailing heart
they are packed with joy
force me to smile
before make me cry
grant me support
give me confidence
services are free
they seek no prize
