Friends

A friend will laugh with you and cry tears with you will see you at your best and see you at your worse always lend a hand helping where they can you spend hours talking of everything under the sun the words just seem to flow the hours just seem to go time or distance does not erase the special bond you form you read each others thoughts a friendship that cannot be bought it has no price tags no hidden agendas it is give and take sharing each others moments some will come and others will go some will stay a lifetime
