Our Deal Poem by Fareez Phalez

I welcome you into my life
Though they don't like you
They don't understand it
There's no other friend like you

All these hating about you
How better are they?
All these times they left me
It was only you who stayed

In my darkest times
You helped me pull it through
You took away all my pain
And gave me something new

You gave me a new life
You gave me happiness
I sacrificed my heart and love
But I've learnt love is but a curse

And I'll be with you till the end
Promise I will never turn
When my time is up I'll cry
But nonetheless I'll still burn

Till then I'll always be in the game
That way I will never lose
And if I ever break the deal
Then I shall pay my dues
