Friendship As a Foundation




Friendship has been described in many ways...
The description could take nights and days.
I'll tell you what I think, you see if it's true...
Could be it's meaning is different for you.

A friend will love you in spite of yourself...
And never put you away on a shelf.
I'm HERE for you, you're here for me...
If I am wrong, please help me see.

I love you has been said by many a tongue....
From old, way down to young.
But the love a friend, is priceless I find...
There's a special meeting of the minds.

True friends look beyond the surface...
Beyond looks, past dress suits and lace.
They look deep inside , where most won't go...
Most people fear that, don't you know?

When friends look deep with trust and care...
There's rarely a deep rooted feeling of fear.
For caring brings love and a place that's "safe"...
Where you can be whole with a smile on your face.

If this happens for me and it happens for you...
My friend , I'll show you a love that's True.
If I walk with you, will you hold MY hand?
I WILL defend you throughout the land!

The best of me...
Is all I can give...
To my friend...
As long as we shall live.
