I Can Be

I can be the best friend you ever had

The one you reach for when you're sad

Or happy, or celebratory or feeling alone

Or whenever you text me on the phone

I'll give you the attention that you need

Your lover, your supporter, or the alpha that leads

But you have to be authentic, without a doubt

And never, ever sell me out

Or try to play me like a fool

Cause although I could, I'd never do it to you

A beneficial friend you have in place

until we both need our space

Then we'd go just like the breeze

Until the next time that I can be
