Shall I call you my friend
Will you stay until the end
A chance meeting and shared interest
Could I have found the very best
Will you come at my behest
Or shall I join you and leave the rest
Though we may spend time apart
It is a bond forged in mind and heart
A sacred trust, many words left unsaid
Lead with your heart, not with your head
As you hurt, my being aches with you
I empathize, see what you are going through
I listen, do not judge, and try to understand
I will be there to lend a helping hand
On our path lies an obstacle we face together
Am I in the wrong or do I need to forgive her
Who or what is to blame, does it really matter
Do we choose here and now or instead forever
Are you not my friend
Has this become the end
