“I wrote this poem to a friend I have known since I was in third grade. We have had our ups and downs, but I have and always will love her."
THERE IS THAT FRIEND
© Anon
There is that friend 
that is so much a part of you, that you feel alone just thinking about the 
thought of her not being there.
There is that friendship
 that has so much that it is based on that nothing could ever dissolve or 
even threaten it.
There is that friend
 with whom you share so much history that one fight or misunderstanding rolls 
off nearly instantaneously,
because one issue is so insignificant, and could never come close to 
shattering the bond.
There is that friendship
 that cannot always be explained, but only understood and cherished by the 
two people that share it.
There is that friend
 that mean so much to you, that you honestly believe you would stop studying 
for a final exam,
break a date with your crush of five years, or risk being grounded just so 
you could be there to lend a shoulder to cry on, offer a hug, or spend three 
hours  
just sitting with her if that would make it at all better.
There is that friendship
 that has lasted through ten years of your life, and is still growing. 
There is that friend 
who you can talk to about something that happened when you were eight years 
old,
 and she can relive that moment so vividly along with you..
 
There is that friend
 that knows you as well as you know yourself, and finds it special that you 
know her just as well.
There is that friend 
who can make you smile through your tears, or cry out of 
happiness.
There is that friend
 who is always there for you, and just realizing that she would be there is 
more than enough to make it better.
 There is that friend 
 
who cares about clearing away your tears
  no less if you are crying over absolutely nothing or over something she may 
have done to hurt you.
I have one friend like that, and it is that friend that will always occupy a precious part of my heart.
"this is dedicated to my best friend jade she means the world to me"
A TRUE FRIEND
© Ashley Montgomery
A true friend never walks away
A true will always stay
A true friend looks out for you
A true friend will guard your secrets
Like a precious gift
A true friend is there for you
To give you a helpful lift
A true friend tries to make you smile
Tries to replace that frown
They may not always succeed 
But they rarely let you down
These arms for you are open
This heart for you does care
And when I think you need me
I'll try to always be there
I'll listen to your fears
I promise not to laugh
Comfort your falling tears
 
I'll make this friendship last
I'll keep you near to my heart
I'll always hold you dear
Even when we're miles apart
Even when you're here
I hope I am to you
Everything you are to me
For the friendship we have
Is a special one indeed.
