In the name of friendship,
I will tell you no lies,
I will not use or abuse you,
nor will I steal your possessions.
In the name of friendship,
I will never take you for granted,
I will never share your secrets,
nor will I ever take advantage of you.
In the name of friendship,
I will not borrow and not return,
I will not take back anything I have given you,
nor will I deny you anything I have to give.
In the name of friendship,
I will never condemn you for what you believe,
I will never treat you unjust,
nor will I condone your wrongs.
In the name of friendship,
I could never ignore your plea for help,
I could never laugh at you when you are down,
nor will ever turn away when you are trying to help.
In the name of friendship,
I will always be just a call away,
I will always lend a listening ear,
and I will always expect the same from you.
