True Friends

Up -n- down those stairs, down -n- up these stairs, again and again, then I’ll go in the house -n- close then lock the door, only way someone’s entering is if they breaking in, they say I’m nice cuz I grin, and I’m so understanding -n- patient, and so caring -n- giving, then most of their other friends, I need friends, but my past won’t let me let them in, won’t let them up -n- down those stairs or down -n- up these stairs again, in my house I won’t let them in, -n- I hide behind a brick wall, with several weapons in case they try to break in, so to a degree I’m selfish, so until I become selfless, and let another self caress my flesh, and help me become my better than best self, that I’ve already made my selfish self, -n- let them walk with me up -n- down, -n- down -n- up those stairs again -n- again,-n- open up the door to my house -n- let them in, and let them be to me, what I was to them, a true friend, enjoying them -n- grin, being nice -n- understanding -n- patient, and allowing them to be caring -n- giving, -n- let them stand beside me -n- not behind me, -n- together selflessly -n- not selfishly we will win. So, I’m asking the Universe For a true friend, my door is open Come on in, together we will win My friend up -n- down -n- down -n- up These stairs again -n- again, my friend Together we’ll win
