My Good Friend

My Good Friend never argues,
and at all times displays the truth;
 My Good Friend has been with me now,
since early in my youth.
 
 My Good Friend listens to my stories'
and never judges me;
 My Good Friend lets me be myself,
just as I am supposed to be.
 
 My Good Friend has witnessed my turmoil,
and watched me shed my tears;
 My Good Friend has let me express myself,
when no one else would hear.
 
 My Good Friend listens to my rants and raves,
and in my outbursts has consoled me;
 My Good Friend I will cherish always,
for my good friend lets me be me.
 
 My Good Friend has been my therapist,
and my savior now and then;
 My Good Friend does'nt speak at all,
for my Good Friend is my pen.
