My True Friend
You are my friend
You laugh with me, you cry with me
You tell me things because I have earned your trust
I tell you my sins without a fear
You expect my rejection when it is your turn
But none from me will you receive
As sin is sin, whether more or less
I tell you truths you don’t wish to hear
You scold me when I misbehave
You tell me when I’m a “Drama Queen”
You put me up on a pedestal
We lift each other when ever one falls
We'll be there when the dark clouds appear
This is how it should be and is a promise we share
Sometimes we argue, at times we fight
Always admit when 'er we’re wrong
Never let pride nor grudge live in this space
Living easy, in a friendship, uncluttered, with
“I am sorry” and “I love you”
Just little words that mend big rifts
Let’s me know that you are
“My Friend”
