You are My Friend

When people smile at you Do you have to ask yourself if they’re only being polite that they think you’re annoying?

When people make plans with you Do you have to ask yourself if they would rather be alone that they think you’re a burden?

When people complement you Do you have to ask yourself if they don’t really mean it that they think you’re horrible?

I don’t want to ask myself But I can’t help it But let me tell you something before you can ask

You are not annoying You are not a burden You are a good person But most of all

You are my friend And I mean that
