True Friendship
I find myself needing
needing to define
a concept special to this bleeding
bleeding heart of mine
the concept of true friendship
not many understand
a sacred relationship
that happens to demand
demand a certain respect
a certain tenderness and love
knowing everyone's imperfect
friendship's a blessing from above
a blessing that requires
purity of heart
unselfish desires
and determination never to depart
willingness to always
walk the extra mile
finding special ways
to make each other smile
true friendship takes
a certain maturity
it never breaks
never surrenders to fragility
issues get talked about
compromises are reached
problems get worked out
trust is never breached
a friend is always there
in times of greatest need
to love and to care
no matter how much you bleed.
