Secrets we Keep, To Hugs to Weep

Once in your life, you make friends that are true

Nothing else matters except what's between them and you

Words can't convey what they mean,

Better friends I haven't seen

We have had the most awesome times,

And yes, we have gotten into some stupid fights

We have shared the happiest moments,

Also been together in the saddest contents

Sometimes we may take for granted, we fear

The ones who are so close and dear.

No matter the miles that keep us apart,

We're always together in each other's heart

We get so caught up in life and things we must do,

Sometimes we forget to stop and say I love you

If you ever felt I forgot or didn't care,

Let me stop right now; my true feelings I'll share

You can stand there and smile, do some task

But you can't trick me, I will know it's a mask

You can calmly sit there and try to look cool,

But I know your emotions, and you can't make me fool

I can't give solutions to all your problems, doubts,

or fears. 

But I can listen to you, and together we can search for an answer that clears

I can't promise to be there with you in the future to bear 

But I can be there now when you need me to care

Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge

But will always appear to protect you from people who try to nudge

I'm always there to hear you out when you need to talk.

Hanging in there for life, no matter how rough the walk
