I didn’t know this at the start

That day of my school class she became a part

She sat by me because I wasn’t scary

The only other girl in the class was popular

And the boys were big and hairy

That’s where it started, sitting side-by-side

Now as adults, in each other we confide

Oh, a true friend who can find!

Friendship is about balance

Being adventurous is her talent

She helped me come out of my shell

I’m introverted and reserved

As anyone can tell

We are both prone to overthinking

But when we talk to each other

Our problems seem a little smaller

It’s always better doing life together
