A FRIEND…,
is someone who KNOWS you DEEPLY.
…who gets thru’ the REAL PERSON inside of you
and helps you let it out.
Someone who Talks with you FREELY about the REALMS of LIFE..,
even with ACHES and PAINS included.
Someone who UNDERSTANDS.
Someone who LISTENS-
…to what YOU are SAYING.
…to what YOU are TRYING to SAY, and CANNOT say..,
with or WITHOUT WORDS spoken.
Someone who DOES NOT COUNT
what was DONE for YOU..,
Rather, keep HOLDING your HANDS
till TROUBLES are THROUGH.
Someone who SHARES your LAUGHTER’S
and takes you OUT of the BLUE.
…does not Envy.
Instead, cheers and CELEBRATES
on SPECIAL Days of YOU.
Someone who CORRECTS you,
when you’re WRONG.
And PRAISES
when you’re RIGHT.
Someone who stills GIVES
though Days are ROUGH and TIGHT….
rushes to RESCUE you
prior ”BUT’S” and “WHY’S?”
…weaves a DREAM WITH YOU,
Under neath the STARS in SKIES
…CHOOSES YOU over Pride.
Someone who COMFORTS-
your SHELTER,
and GUIDE.
…SAILS with you
throughout the JOURNEYS
of your LIFE.
…reaches out despite DISTANCE.
Someone who SPEAK with PEACE
and WISDOM
…TOUCHES your HEART
…TICKLES your BONES
…ACCEPTS you as YOU ARE
WITH all her HEART and SOUL.
…PROVIDES you SPACE to breathe in.
…says SORRY for SHORTCOMINGS.
Someone UNBIASED, JUST and FAIR-
..not your MA’AM
..not your SIR…
TAKES and GIVES for Free
and NOT a MONKEY from “u banana-BUSINESS” tree.
Someone who STAYS
when all ‘good friends’ were GONE..
…FORGIVES sincerely with wide OPEN ARMS.
Someone who BELIEVES,
and LOVES you,
…UNDOUBTEDLY
….FAITHFULLY.
…At all times….
UNCONDITIONALLY.
