Forever Brother

This was written about how I view friendship. Too often I find myself with people who don't know me, people who impose friendship. I was out with the guys and it made me think.... this is what I want. People who don't judge you, people who accept my view and people who don't hide things from me. So, thats all. So, this is just about the guys and gals who I call my friends. And those who I don't consider m
y friends...
Life left me broken
Days full of hatred
You make me feel alive
When I was almost dead

A life long crutch
A shoulder to lean on
Friendship prevails.
My hope was almost gone

The brother I never had
Forever Brother
A shared bond
Like no other.

I don't want to go back there
When I walked alone
Lost paths of hope.
No longer society's drone

Accept me for who I am
Throw away those fake smiles
Your pity is worthless to me
Pseudo-friends die in awhile.

Don't tell me who I am
Stop telling us who to be
Telling me who my friends are.
Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me....

                      ....Friends never die.
