Steven

I sometimes wonder about the reason why

he’s still a friend of mine

Of all the years I’ve known him well

well most of them were mostly spent with me

sharing all my misery

Steven never judged

even when the years got rough

it’s a trait I wish I had myself

Steven keeps his faith

even on my darkest days

it’s a trait I wish I had myself

I know he’s been through a lot

he could complain but he never does to me

hidden vulnerability

But it shines through in how he lives

he barely takes but he always gives for free

to any old friend in need

Steven never worries

even when our dreams don’t hurry

it’s a trait I wish I had myself

Steven keeps his smile

even when it hurts a while

it’s a trait I wish I had myself

He’s the friend I wish I was myself
