Will you be there when I'm down, <br />And catch me when I fall? <br />Will you hold me when I need <br />To feel the warmth of your touch? <br /> <br />Will you laugh when I laugh, <br />And cry when I cry? <br />Will you let me rant and rave, <br />When I need to let off steam? <br /> <br />Will you discuss those painful things, <br />That you'd rather not think about? <br />Like the times we've hurt each other, <br />And promised would never do so again? <br /> <br />Will you say the right thing, <br />When all I've heard is the wrong? <br />And tell me soothing words, <br />That make the pain I feel subside? <br /> <br />Will you understand me when I say, <br />'I can't see you now, go away'? <br />Will you come back when I call, <br />As if nothing happened at all? <br /> <br />If you'll do these things for me, <br />And keep smiling all the way. <br />If you'll be with me through the bad times, <br />As well as the good. <br /> <br />Then truly you are my friend, <br />My pal, my mate and my confidante. <br />And that means so much to me. <br />I thank you dearly, for being there, <br />You, My Friend.<br /><br />Bikramjyoti Kashyop<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/are-you-my-friend-2/
