The Science of Friendship

Fri, 03/23/2018 - 11:00 -- J.James

Studying the discovery of this new sensation
Knowing it’s been awhile since I had a true friendship.
Something so fragile and strong, but still flexible
Surrounded by trust, and a bond of mutual affection.
Accepting the responsibility of unselfishness
Loyal to truth and being a reliable residence
A resident for joy and laughter, replenishing an emotional debt
Having an outlook to your arrival, enjoying that moment
Transforming a fixed mindset, into a growth mindset.
The value of this interpersonal relationship is potent.
…the science of a friendship, so complex.
Just willing to learn, and explore your intellect.
Don’t plague yourself the logic of uncertainty
There’s no doubt that I’ll listen, no need for perplexity.
I don’t want to baffle you in any way, just to be clear
My goal is simple,
…convey that I’ll be empathetic and sincere.
Please use your ears to hear,
So that I can reach your heart within.
Judge my actions, and discover my dear
That I can be someone new to confide in.
