To Be Your Friend

What would it be like

to be with you

as a friend

a confidante?

 

I'd love to talk with you

to walk with you

as we make our way

towards the rainbow

 

Will you trust me

with your secrets?

With your cares

and worries?

 

I would share

my emotions.

But could you

cry with me?

 

Your tears would blend

with the rain that falls

Our laughter

echoing like thunder

 

I'd hold your hand

if only to see

how well

it fits.

 

I'd hug you

to know

how well our bodies

conform

 

Mostly I would listen

to your heart,

your voice.

Friend. Forever.
