This is the poem:
Around the corner I have a friend - In this great city that has no end
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on - And before I know it, a year is gone
And I never see my old friends face - For life is a swift and terrible race
He knows I like him just as well - As in the days when I rang his bell
And he rang mine but we were younger then - And now we are busy, tired men
Tired of playing a foolish game - Tired of trying to make a name
"Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on Jim" - "Just to show that I'm thinking of him"
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes - And distance between us grows and grows
Around the corner, yet miles away - "Here's a telegram sir," "Jim died
today"
And that's what we get and deserve in the end - Around the corner, a vanished
friend

Remember to always say what you mean - If you love someone, tell them
Don't be afraid to express yourself - Reach out and tell someone what they mean
to you
Because when you decide that it is the right time, it might be too late.
Seize the day. Never have regrets. And most importantly, stay close to
your friends and family, for they have helped make you the person that you are
today.
