My Friends

What Is A Friend?

by Kit Mccallum

Someone who is only a phone call away

Someone who is there to share your thoughts with;

Someone to listen, no matter the subject.

A friend is someone you can feel comfortable with:

Someone you can sit silently beside, without conversation;

Someone you do not need to fill the quiet moments with.

A friend is someone you can trust:

Someone who will guard your deepest secrets;

A friend is someone who is not judgmental:

Someone who will gently offer advice and opinions,

Yet, someone who is not overbearing or critical.

A friend is someone who can keep you grounded:

Someone who can help you see through your obstacles;

Someone to shoulder you through life's trials.

A friend is someone who shares unconditionally:

Someone to laugh and to cry with;

Someone to lean on, through both the good and the bad.

A friend is someone you choose wisely,

For a friend is your own mirrored image:

Someone to compliment your own self;

Someone who indicates who you are as a person.

A friend.... is what you are to me.

Friends Forever

by Ashley Benson

My friends are so very dear to me,

Through the good and bad they’ve been there,

Laughter or tears we’ve been through it all,

But no matter what they stood by me,

Sharing in my joy, or lending a shoulder to cry on.

Building memories that will last a life time.

The fun times and laughter that we have shared

Are happy memories that will always be there.

When I was sad, they have always cheered me up.

My friends are true friends, not just passing by,

But will be there through out the years.

I can’t think of more perfect friends,

To share my goals and dreams with.

Because my Forever Friends

Are the only ones I will ever need,

I don’t know if they can tell

Just how much they mean to me.

How important their friendship is,

And how much I care,

For they are what true friendship is about.

They’re there when I need them,

And I love them all.
