Poetry: When You Are A Friend
"Don't walk in front of me… I may not follow
Don't walk behind me… I may not lead
Walk beside me… just be my friend"
― Albert Camus
When you are a friend to someone in need
You don't realize how far that can go
Until that someone needs your guidance and support
Being a friend is what you need to know
When someone cries on your shoulder late at night
When someone gives you a 2AM call
You a friend to that person
Because you did not let them fall
When you buy them a gift just to cheer them up
When you saw that they were down
That's when you are a friend
Because you did not want to see them frown
When you tell them they can find a better person to date
So you keep deciding to meddle
That is when you are a friend
Because you did not let them settle
When you did not want them alone on a Saturday night
So you invite them over the phone
That is when you are a friend
Because you did not want them to be alone
When you give them really big hugs
Just out of simple love
You are a friend you know why?
You love them high and above
When you see they need support
So you give a hand to lend
You are a friend
And you never pretend
When you show unconditional love
And you always show up in the end
You offer support to those you care about
You are simply, a friend
