Friendship

How many friends do I need?
How can I tell?
People who cover me when I bleed
They're people who pick me up after I fell

I can share all my thoughts
We can hangout
They untangle all my knots
They know what I'm all about

They're understanding
There accepting is expanding
They're outstanding
And not commanding...

A friend is thoughtful
A friend is delightful
Even through all our ties
And all our cries
Our friendship never dies

That is what a true friend is...
