Best friends walk a fine line;
a tightrope of words and thoughts;
dedicated to their friend enuff to say the truth
but also promising to support decisions
even knowing they may not be quite right.
For no one knows the future
or what it brings
and we base our processes on the past...
not always a good thing
but usually a good indicator.
The best friend rejoices in ur happiness
ur passions and new loves
then holds you while u cry ur heart out
when everything falls apart.
She (or he) is there to listen
to be honest
and to give hope and understanding.
A best friend will never leak,
will never tell,
will never betray.
But will stand up for you against hell itself if need be.
She is strength,
and weakness as well,
as you mutually listen and cope, and love
and go thru this puzzle
called life.
She says what she must...
a reality check,
then walks the line again,
knowing you need her love and support
and sometimes agrees with what u say
but only until her heart tells her
its time to get down to the truth.
A best friend walks a fine line;
a line of love.
