All I want is a minute dedicated to me. <br />I want someone to be there for me. <br />I want someone to show me they care. <br />Someone who would listen to me, <br />And even encourage me. <br />Someone who would not turn their back on me. <br />But, instead shares a smile with me. <br /> <br />Can you be that someone? <br />Can I trust you? <br /> Can I count on you? <br />Can you be there for me? <br /> <br />I know is so much to ask for, <br />And so hard to do, <br />But, all I want is <br /> A real friend. <br /> <br />Someone I can talk to. <br />Someone I can go to, <br />Someone who I can hug, <br />And feel protected by. <br />Someone who will be there, <br />Even on my hardest time. <br />Someone who will be, <br /> truly honest with me, <br />And wouldn’t judge me. <br />Someone who really cares for me. <br />Someone I can cry with. <br />Someone who will lend me a hand, <br />Just to help me out, <br />Or lift me up. <br /> <br />That’s the friend I want, <br />Not the one, <br />Who says I’m your friend, <br />Just to take advantage of you, <br />And laugh at you.<br /><br />Yisel Chong<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-kind-of-friend-i-want/
