Friend

a friend will listen when you have something to say.
                   comfort when you have had a bad day.

a friend will acknowledge when they have done wrong.
                   be your strength when you are not strong.

a friend will be there through thick and thin.
                   do their best to understand where you've been.

a friend will not leave you in your time of need.
                   never take advantage or mislead.

a friend will take the time to say hello.
                   love you from head to toe.

a friend will sometimes be more than just a friend.
                   be your lover to the very end.
