TO A FRIEND I'VE NEVER MET

Have you ever had a friend
Who you’d like to hold real close
And tell them you understand
About their pain and woes

Sometimes it’s not enough
To only say “I care”
Or to let your heart go
And your fragile soul to bear.

It makes it even harder
When this friend you’ve never met
And not being there to hug them
Brings only sad regret

But that is what I’m facing
When I know that she is sad
And nothing I can do
Can give her what she had.

The love you felt will linger
Her memory never gone
But I will pray for comfort
For my friend “COUNTRY MOM”
