True Friends

With you, I'm glad I can be me
And I only wish you knew how much you mean to me.
I never asked you to understand me.
I never asked you to stand beside me.
I never asked you to care.
I never asked you to be there.
I never asked you to get to know me.
I never asked you to talk to me.
I never asked you to see
The troubles lying within me.
I never asked you to help,
But you knew something in my heart was missing,
And you did help.
I don't have to hide anything.
I never asked you to be my friend
But I thank you for helping my heart to mend.
