Are people you can count on when you need help
Give a shoulder to cry on when times are rough
Stand by you for support
Give solace when you feel weak
Lift up your spirits when the world and everyone in it tries to bring you down
Give you advice when dead-ends seem to be all around
Care for you when you are sick
Support your decisions, even why they think your wrong, and you dreams because to them you can accomplish what ever you want
Tell you everything will be alright when nothing seems that way
Give chance after chance because we all make mistakes
Help you get back on your feet
Can be closer to you than family
Give you all you need and ask for nothing in return.
To those I've lost through death: I'm sorry I don't visit you more often.
To those I've lost through a falling-out: I'm sorry we couldn't see eye-to-eye.
To those current and in the future: I wish to be this for you and more.
To those who want more than friendship: I wait for the right moment to tell you how I feel for you and would hope for you to do the same.
I write all this because you will never loose my friendship unless you choose for it to end. So don't worry if things don't always work out as you want them to because they seldom do. Be patient and understanding.
