What Are Friends

Some say friend is just a word

Because no one can be trusted

Call out and you won't be heard

Reach out and you'll be rejected

Love's supposed to be gentle and kind

So friendship must be close to that

But how is friend defined

Guess that all depends on you

For me friends are laughter and fun

A hand to hold when worlds fall apart

Where you go when there's nowhere to run

A shoulder to cry into when you're hurt

But above all a friend accepts you

They like you despite your flaws

Because they are human and imperfect too

You're different people who despite all odds

Stand side by side
