What does "friend" mean to you?

 

To me it means unconditional acceptance - to know my deepest faults and my deepest weaknesses, and love me despite - and not exploit. To need me in their life, as I need them in mine. A shoulder to waste my fears upon, an ear to scream upon.

To share tears with, and beers with and "god help me I cant make it here" with

An island in the wake of an early flood.

A chalice in the spilling of blood.

A resurection, a crucifixion - a chance to be understood.

To be battered and bruised, and subtly obtuse.

My mentor, my mat, my muse.

 

I walked a mile and they were there,

I walked 10 miles and they were there,

I walked a lifetime and they were there.

 

My friend ??
