A True Friend.

A true friend should be radical.
They should love you when you are unlovable.
Hug you when you are in need of a hug.
and bear you when you are unbearable.

A true friend should be fanatical.
They should cheer while the rest of the world boos.
Dance when you get good news.
Cry when you cry too.

But most of all, a true friend should be mathematical.
They should multiply your joy.
Divide your sorrow.
Subtract the past,
and add to tomorrow.
They should be able to know how to calculate the deep need of your heart
and be bigger than the sum of all your parts.
