What do you think this poem is about?

What makes a friend?

A friend
What makes a friend?
A friend
Is someone that everyone needs
A friend
Is that special one
A friend
Is someone you tell EVERYTHING
A friend
Is someone you never lie to
A friend
Can be a boy or a girl
A friend
Is someone that is always their
A friend
Will always listen to you
A friend
Always has input to give
A friend
Will never leave you in the dust
A friend
Will help you through the thick and the thin
A friend
Will always stand by your side
A friend
Will never let you down
A friend
Is someone everyone needs
What would you do if you didnt have a friend?

    There is some thing more than the friend is the true friendship, which is eternal.

    damm thats right! but the problem iz that theres not that much people in the world like that. too bad and some are already taken. so sooner or later you have to stand alone
