A True Friend

True friends these days are really hard to find
No one does anything for anyone, ulterior motive on their mind
Help because you want to just to be kind
Not because you feel you can't decline

A true friend can say anything without fear
And a true friend won't be offended by what you share
A true friend your soul to them you can bare
And a true friend you can turn to when shedding a tear

So why is finding this true friend such a hard task?
And if it's so hard will the friendship really last?
Will it be worth the wait and as friends we'll have a blast?
What if I have missed them and my true friends' already passed?

Like a soul mate I believe you have one true friend in life
Someone who's always there in good and in strife
Someone to give and receive some advice
Someone who is true and without a price!
