A Loyal Friend

Loyal friends relate to you like no other
Their the ones that i can tell my soul to
Loyal friends are like a sister or a brother
Through thick and thin they are always there for you
     
Being loyal keeps us from falling
Like an angel who lifts us to our feet
Staying true to our profession and calling
A type of loyalty that never ends bittersweet

Staying loyal is like a precious flower
But can easily be poisoned
It is a bond that keeps growing every hour
Loyalty astounds the relation of every reason

To me, loyal friends are never apart
Maybe in distance, but never at heart
