Be grateful for that friend. 

The one who calls during the good times,

the bad and the mundane moments in

between. 

The one who listens to you narrate how

you spent 

the day runhing erands, nothing

important.

The one who holds an umbrella in the

rain for you

when they have the option to be dry.

The one who listens to you recount your

painful experiences countless times until 

you’ve gotten over it.

I don’t have that friend yet, 

But I’ll be grateful when they come.
