Only the best friends will do



Only the best friends will do
That know me
Like a book
Also by now they are also aware
That I have feelings
And also want feelings to be
Respected
I don't expect to see my friends
Hurting my feelings
Also it was my father that
Made me many years ago
Also my friends
Helps me deal with
My daily problems
Before they get out of control
Also we have known each other
For a long time now
Also my friends help
Deal with my anger
When they see me angry
They try to calm me down
I follow my sleep schedule
I don't stay up late anymore
I always go to bed early
So that I can get a good night sleep
Before I go to sleep
I need to take my meds
I never forget to take my medication
It is very important for me to do
We are still having Summer
And today the coolest place to be
Is to be at the boardwalk early in the
Morning before it gets hot
Today we are having 35 degrees.
It is very bad for people who have asthma
Tomorrow it is going to go  back
To 22 degrees
I can't wait for the new day to arrive
Tomorrow first thing in the morning
For now I am sleeping in my bed
Also the air conditioning is cooling my
Bedroom off
And also I am sleeping the whole
Night in my bed
I never woke up once in the middle of the night
I sleep all through the night
Yes the nights are long
And it was made by my father
To sleep
Also my father keep me alive
Every single day
Yes when I walk I have pain
In my hip
I can't walk fast anymore
Also going up the stairs hurts my hip
I never said anything to know.
Body because
I thought the pain
Would go away
Also the pain is not going away
I think I pinch a nerve
Father bless the friends I have
My friends care a lot about me
And also they want the best for me
