----------------------------------------
You
were first an acquaintance
then became friend
now you're part of the inner circle.
You're one of mine now.
You're on my buddy list,
under my wing,
I will fight for you.
I will help
with whatever you need,
because you're one of mine.
And people don't drop from that list lightly.
So if you need me,
you have only to let me know.
