Lost True Through Space

have one person in your life you're always pleasant towards
don't go out of your way or speak additional nonsense
train yourself to be thoughtful and kind without reward
and when there's reason too compliment in a sentence

but don't seek their reaction be nice just to be nice
don't do it to be praised fancied liked or approved
converse any situation comfort or offer life advice
but never romantic or half hearted just true

always take their side
put them first 
help them hide
back them up when they decide

without thought a friend for life
care for and be nice
and my final advice
keep them in your life

they can't be replaced
cherish their sound
cherish their face
keep them near don't lose them through space
