What is our friendship?

A Poem by Shadow

...

What is our friendship to you?
Is it dirt on the ground that you walk on?
Is it worth more to you when it's at stake?
Is it the shoes you wear?
Is it just the lonely little tree in the backyard?
Or is it the shadow on the wall,
Always ignored and cornered?
Is it to you just words.
Is it this poem I am writing?
Is it the breath you breathe?
Is it the song you sing?
Is it the mockingbird in the tree?
Is it the dead cat in the street?
Is it the dirt on your knees?
Is it the pet you love so much?
Or is it a movie that you watch,
And make no comment about?
Is it the weak link in your life?
Is it only a fight?
Is it as precious as your life?
Or is it cold and dark like the shadows of the night?
Well lately I don't know what friendship means to you...
All I know is what you want me to know...
And right now I know nothing of our friendship
