Best Friend Poem by Niamh Gold

People say I'm their best friend,
But what does that mean really?
Someone you spend time with,
Someone you tell your secrets to?
Maybe, but I think it takes more.
It takes trust, and security,
More than anything else.
Someone you know you will never loose,
Someone that won't betray you.
Maybe it takes a connection,
Something deep and meaningful.
A best friend should be like your guardian angel,
Someone who cares about you.
A best friend should give their real opinion,
And give advice.
A best friend should know you well enough,
So that if you asked them a question, they'd know the answer.
So here's a question,
Do you really have one best friend?
Are you a good best friend?
