What makes a friend!

TO MY FRIEND

"What is between us two, we know; Shake hands and let the whole world go."

MEM AOKK

H, friend, let us be true

To one another! For the world, which seems

To lie before us like a land of dreams,

So various, so beautiful, so new,

Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,

Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain

Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
Where ignorant armies clash by night,

-Matthew Arnold.
