Friends
I belong to no group.
 I hold no special place
  I belong to no club
 No gang. 
 
 I am only myself
 Even if that’s dark
 So excuse me for
 Speaking my mind
 Excuse me for speaking
 My thoughts
 For once I sit
 
 Not in silence
 For once I want 
 My voice heard
 My thoughts out of
 My head
 To where others know what 
 I want to say
 Where I must not suffer them alone
 
 I want to accepted
 By those I surround 
 Myself with
 Not judged upon
 
 Too much cruelty
 Only one can take
 Before she snaps
 And slowly 
 That shows.
 
 I am with my friends
 I cherish them all
 This is no group
 No gang
 
 Just us
 Hanging out
 Talking
 Flirting
 Wrestling
 Playing around
 
 Close friends
 At times we only 
 Need each other
 To not be judged
 But to fall upon
 One another
 And know
 That we have
 Each other back
 Within these times
 
 They are people
 That we try to
 Trust
 But who
 Can you trust?
 Who even hurt you
 When you’re down?
 How do you not
 Let it show
 On your face
 
 But yes
 We still trust one another
 We hold
 Unto each other
 Upon our time and needs
 We love one another
 
 Friends
 Brothers
 Sisters
 Lesbian
 Gays
 We accept
 Not judge
 
 Even if we do
 Judge one another
 We only mean to tease
 
 So yes we can
 Lean upon
 One another
 In our tough times
 
 And sometimes
 That is
 Enough
 To get
 By.
