Because That is what “Friend” Is – Napatsorn Treesap

To one of my friends that I trust the most 
Another year of growth but our memories still freezing
As if the world has kept the pictures of you
In my head—

The pictures of happiness friends with nothing to pretend 
Laughing the way I look at you flirted with chef at the Indian restaurant 
It’s just simple happiness we spent 
In everyday life

When I was sad without tears on my face 
Without a quavering voice on the line 
You instantly knew it and take me to the places
Where I can drink green tea or eat an ice cream fondue

Friends who are never gonna leave me in pain
Friends who are never gonna stab me in my back
Friends who are never gonna leave me shivering in the rain 
Because that is what “friend” is
