You always were a friend from the onset,
All I asked for was a moment of your time.

Ready to place your troubles to the side to hear why I was upset.
Sticking by my side while you deal with your own strife.
Always knowing precisely the correct thing to say,
You always see right through my façade to my core.
You kept me close to your heart without delay,
Always there to embrace me even though inside you are at war.
You continuously have a smile to cheer me up,
Always giving me your shoulders to cry upon you are my best friend.
You are always pleased to see me willing to envelop,
My heart is yours forever for you alone to tend.
