What Is a Friend

It's important to have a real close friend, on whom you can rely. One who shares your hopes and dreams. Consoles you, when you cry! A shoulder, you can lean on, in times of stress and strife, to encourage and advise you, down the road we know, as life! A friend who'll always be there! One on whom, you can depend! Does not question your decisions, he's just a loyal friend! He'll back you up, through thick and thin, no matter how bizarre! He treats you like a brother! He accepts you, as you are! No matter what the future holds, there's one thing to contend, you'll know that you've been truely blessed, because, he is your friend!
