The world is a tricky place
where the sky is blue
and some oceans are green
the chance that something spectacular to happen
are one in a billion
so what makes this piece any different?
the simple fact that one word can change a life
one greeting can make a day
and one departure can tear a heart
for instance friendship
it is one word that is thrown around
and everyone is friends with anyone
but what really makes a friend?
one word
Commitment
this one word can change a life
in the sense that if you become committed
you are expected to almost always be there
just like your senses and your family
but when that commitment is broken
and a heart is torn
where does that leave you?
