My friend

By SickSanityJenn

You make me see things I ignore
Help me face all that I abhorĀ 
Demand I reach for so much more
You're my friend

I will probably always make mistakes
I might not reach for all I can take
But even angels can fall from grace
You're still my friend

I may fall and not want to get up
Cry and shout that I've had enough
But you're there to give me a shove
Because you're my friend

It's not perfect but neither is life
We all have struggles and strife
No matter what we will survive
We are friends
