Who is my friend?

If you can only see my failures
you are not a friend

If you can only see fault
you are not a friend

If you can only see the ugliness
you are not a friend

If you can only see what you can get from me
you are not a friend

If you are here to manipulate
you are not a friend

If you are not offering healing
you are not a friend

If you are not offering compassion
you are not a friend

If you are not showing a better way
you are not a friend

If you only want to play
you are not a friend

If you are not extending a hand
to lift me up
You are not a friend

If you raise your hand in anger
you are not a friend

If you can only attack me
you are not a friend

If you can't forgive
you are not a friend

If you have no love for yourself
how can you be a friend?

If you can learn to see the
the greatness within
you are my friend

If you can see the goodness
you are my friend

If you have the faith in us
you are my friend

If you can still see the beauty
in the world around you
you are my friend

If you have the hope
you are my friend

If you have love in your heart
you are my friend

Let us be friends to the end
