Listen To A Friend

I love the way you listen,

Touching minds the way we do.

Lowering inhibition,

Encouraging–try this on

For a minute or two.

When we cry and let it out,

We find what caring\'s all about.

Your fertile mind, a place to explore,

I trust mine own is not a bore.

Good laughs do void the blue.

I\'ll always have one for you.

Cannot thee now to depend

There upon your next of kin,

But I will always be your friend.
