light travel through this life.
not holding on to much
from place to place
If you have nothing,
no one can take it away
and desire is discontent.
Friends are the reward
of a life well lived.
Something that can never be lost.
Even when they walk away
and people do
bits and pieces are part of me
and bring me home.

Perfect in emotion.....

As I would expect. You might want to try "reward for" instead of "reward of". Be careful of your tenses, toward the end you go from plural to singular (something) and back to plural again. Minor, minor, minor things, but I know you are a perfectionist!
