True Friend

A true friend is God's treasured gift
that money cannot buy.
A loved one who will be always there
to lend me an ear when I need to be heard.
Pat my back to let me know
it's going to be all right
or that I did great.
Hold my hand when I'm about to fall.
Share with me life's triumphs and failures.
One with whom I can dare to be myself,
with whom I can show my all.
True friendship is love
that can surpass pain and sorrow,
no matter how deep...
My friend, I hold you close to my heart.
And for as long as my mind can think
and my heart can beat,
we will never be apart...
