Family
Family doesn't mean you have to be related,
Or having a mom or dad,
Family are the people who stay with you,
Through the good times and the bad ones,
Their the people that give you their shoulder for you to cry on,
They support you for who you are and not what you are,
They love you and care for you, even if they know they won't get the same love in return,
They stay by your side, even if it means that their not in the picture anymore,
Those people are family, those are the ones who you can truly call family,
Because even if you think it's not true?
It is !
Family isn't based on Dad, mom, sister, and brother,
Family is based on surrounding yourself with the people you love the most,
The people you can stand next to and say "Hey? We made it together!"
That's what it means to be a family,
And if you can see it that way....then I don't know what family truly is..
