Because you are My Friend

Because you are my friend I would do for you all that my heart and my soul and body are capable of doing.

I would cry with you and share your burdens when you are down.

I would laugh with you and rejoice with you when you have achieved.

I would be there when you want my company and I would be gone when you do not.

But do not expect perfection from me, for the day shall come when I let you down and you will be hurt.

And when I let you down, it will not be because I desire to hurt you, nor because I do not still love you. It will only be because I am human and that is one frailty from which no one can escape.
