Are You There?

This is a friendship poem I wrote in my spare time…
Listen to me now
and listen to me good,
If something ever happened,
would you do all you could?
If I chose a path you did not like,
would you swallow all your pride?
Dress up for the occasion?
Come along for the ride?
If people came and teased me,
and hurt me till I cried,
would you fight fire with fire?
and stay by my side?
If I became a nutter,
and did hurtful things,
would you ignore the hurtful words and taunts?
Just to see what tomorrow brings?
Would you stick up for me when I’m down?
and make me laugh all year round?
If I cried, would you cry too?
and smile with me like good friends do?
Would you be the first one to hold me tight,
through the day and all night?
Would you let me poor my heart out,
then pretend like nothing happened?
Cause that'd be good if that would ever happen.
Just remember how much I need you,
and hold me close everyday,
Cause really all I want,
is to hear you say
"I'm Here"
