You are the peanut butter to my jelly.
You are the air that I breathe.
You have everything I ever needed.
You make my world go round.
You are the center of my universe.
You are the shoulder I cry on.
You are the one who makes me smile.
You help me make it through.
You cheer me up when I am down.
You are the sibling I always wanted.
You don’t care what people think.

Friends are important
They are what
helps us, hurt us, change us, improve us, love us, care for us,
and we need them no matter what.
