1 FRIEND BETTER THAN 10

At some point, I went blind. I was wearing my contacts all the time. Still couldn't see ahead but I've always looked behind.

I use to believe 10 Friends was better than 1.

1 Friend would stay, 9 would be done.

I remember not ever picturing that 1,

being so close to me I could truly open up.

That should,

would be there even when I was too much.

I didn't think I'd be a good friend to 1 and show her some fun.Thought I'd abandon her after I had my first born son.

When I look back I should've known. As time went on, we had grown.

I was a quiet girl looking for a voice. She was a wild girl looking for a choice.

Together we made life a long friendship.

Starting with a facebook conversation, we soon didn't see ending.

We begin to talk about relationships and yeah situation-ships. We even shared a random kiss. (It was drunk night).

Young girls being free. Enjoying rides, talks, and eachother's families.

Suddenly someone elses curse of jealousy!

To rip the love we had apart.

To put us to the test, for both of us this was hard.

Pride made us nevermore nervous to restart.

But have you ever had that 1 Friend?

You wanted them in your life from the beginning. Then you lose yourself at the looks of that sisterhood ending?

There I found myself concerned, that inside I had learned. Saddened about the respect, kindness and love I had once earned.

Things surely "hit the fan" and we turned...

Grudges that was held over whatever we felt each person deserved. Days went by and we still yearned.

For a conversation, a hug, or even the love.

Once things changed the hesistation was like a thug,

"you shoot your shot". Be happy if you don't get stopped.

Day by day, after we were broken I wonder if it'll go back to the way,

things use to be. But nothing in this life is done easily.

If they say "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger", I would die for that 1 Friend or even live longer.

For that 9 I'll go ahead and wander.

That 1 will be forever or worse, thick and thin.

That's what it takes to be a true friend.

At that point I opened my eyes. For I had finally gained my sight.

Well we were destined for heavens sake, we are the same sign, and even love the same cake.

All that makes us 2 can remind us why, that 1 Friend is always going to be in mind.

Now this 1 Friend is the best of all 10.

Would you rather 9 kiss your behind and 1 to always stay by your side?

Her name means Pure.

So 1 Friend is better than 10.
