Devoted friends
You may not be thicker than blood/
But I feel your love/
It is deep/
I have experienced it many a time/
It is the way you take care of my back/
I promise you/
I am here to take care of yours as well/
It is in the name that you call me/
You have shortened it in a way that gives it a deeper meaning/
It is the bond that this name creates between us/
You may not be thicker than blood/
But trust me/
What you are to me is important than blood/
I did not choose you/
Our actions brought us together/
We have a lot in common I have lost count/
Blood is dangerous/
It makes me think of red flags/
I dread thinking of red traffic lights/
I can’t risk my life/
You may not be thicker than blood/
But you are always backing me/
You are always on my side /
Your way of telling me the truth is amazing/
Your truth has no power to inflict pain in my heart/
Keep my back/
I will keep yours for good /
Because you are good to me/
Dedicated to all my true friends
