Some things are meant to change
While others stay the same
And some day when you look outside
You wont know what your looking for
But know that I will be there
The moment that you need me
Because thats what friends do
A helping hand to lead the way
When you are in the dark
Open arms and an open heart
A shoulder to cry on
And an ear to listen
With a million ways to make you smile
And some days when you look out that window
You will see them on the other side
With a carton of ice-cream
And a box of tissue
A movie and a hug
Because no matter what happens
Friends will always know how to bring back that smile
A friend will steal you from your house in the dead of night
Just to play in the rain and have a good time
A friend isnt the one who bails you out
They are the one that got in trouble with you
And the one you bail out along with yourself
When things spin out and your alone
A friend will anchor you and let you know that they are there
A friend reads you poetry and tells you when its crap
A friend walks miles with you in the dark even when their scared
Just to make sure that you make it back ok
A friend calls you in the hospital
A friend sneaks you candy even though she knows youll be bouncing off the walls
A friend laughs at you when you decide to go swimming in the ocean at 2 am
They laugh because your drunk and still fully clothed
A friend makes songs and poems about the times you had together
A friend remembers all the stupid things you said when hanging out
A friend thinks you are the most valuable thing in life
Next to their boyfriend or girlfriend
A friend will drive all night just to get to you and give you a hug when you scare them online
That same friend will leave early the next morning so your mom doesnt realize they were there
Through all the darkness and the pain
Through the tears and the anger
Through the good times and bad
Through the thick and the thin
Through bouts of inasnity
And times of pure bliss
Through girlfriends and boyfriends
And dark stormy nights
No matter whats going on
And no matter how far
A friend is forever
As bright as a star
They will lead you when your lost
And pick you up when you fall
They will hold you when your crying
And take hits when all you want to do is fight
They will wrestle you to keep you safe
And spar with you to teach you how to be safe
They will look you in the eyes when no one eles will
And tell you that they love you
When you think you are unloved
They will stay up all night and let you talk
And go with you to get your tattoos and peircings
They will wipe your tears away when you cry
And dance with you all night when your on top of the world
They will tell you what to wear to a date
And keep you semi calm
They will protect you at the cost of their life
And hold you when your in pain or sick
They will keep you from realizing how bad an ingury is
Untill you get to the ER
And they will give you food when you are homeless
A shower too
They know how crazy your family is
And they sometimes want to kill them to give you a chance
They know just how crazy you are
And never dare you to do stupid things
They will clib trees with you
And skinny dip under the moon
Some things are meant to change
While others stay the same
And some day when you look outside
You wont know what your looking for
But know that I will be there
The moment that you need me
Because thats what friends do
A helping hand to lead the way
When you are in the dark

In love I start to realize that some things only seemed to be what they were.

(fav part)

(Deep breath)Okay I absolutely loved it! You turned true friendship into a lovely piece of poetry. Well done!

~Should the truth be so buried
in the endless cemetery of broken dreams?~

This was reallly good, and described friendship but maybe shorten it a bit. You don't need all of this to give as good of a meaning as you did. A little less words. Less are more
