friendship

everyone wants one
everyone needs one
some have many
others have one
if a person has one friendship
that may mean all of the world.
friendships are ever present
and are there through
the thick and the thin.
friendship is something that blossoms
and blooms with time
a friendship doesn't happen overnight
but may take weeks to years.
friendship is something
that doesn't break easily
but may grow stronger
because of a conflict.
true friendships are one in a million
no two are alike
friendships mean so much to all
and even to me.
