Soul Friend

 
affections are funny
they grow and wane over time
from furious flames to cooling embers
but my love remains constant

I don't have to like you to see beauty
your soul's scars tell me so much about you
gentle truth, I share my honesty

from one soul to another
sacred promise I will always be your friend
secrets of faith
we have trusted each other facts over our lives
never to ever be used as weapons

I keep your privacy down deep
in the sanctity and bond of friendship
it is an honor to know you
confessing my fear you made me feel safe
understanding in morals you never judged

I am lucky to know you in fate's immortal scheme
I didn't think anyone would love someone as broken as me
