Friends
Two people
May be more
Maybe same sex
Maybe opposite sexes
Friends all the same!
Symbiosis
Each contributes
Maybe by way of laughter
Maybe by way of quality time
Maybe by way of quality advice
Maybe by way of encouragement
Something must be in existence
Something the other gains from
Something so desirable about the other
We can’t be friends
At least not sustainable friends:
If there’s nothing I do for you
If there’s nothing you do for me
If my presence is not desirable
If your presence is not desirable
There must be something unique
So unique the friend supplies it
That sustains the bond!
Friendship:
It’s about symbiosis
Some part of me that you want
Some part of you that I want
What are friends for!
