Friendship

–––– 
I used to think friendship was
sleepovers and play dates.

But I know it's not.

Friendship is there in the morning talks
about what happened the day before
and why the hell you're still awake.

Friendship is there in the afternoon
laughing so hard you're on the floor at
a corny joke for the third time that day.

Friendship is sitting there eating in
silence because you would rather eat
than talk, and they would too.

Friendship is something that you
brave enough to show them yourself
without afraid being judged,
or being left.

Friendship is crying together at the
corner of the fast food restaurant,
just because they don't want you
to cry alone.

Friendship is love in the strangest ways
when all else is lost.

I do love that kind of friendship.
We do.
