Against Every Odd

In the end, I am glad I still have you

for all the bad memories, the list of reasons we did not work together, the ways we messed each other up,

you and I found a way to be friendly,

secretly supporting each other after all these years,

after formerly blocked phone numbers and all my harsh words

you kept your promise

to be there if I needed, to be my 3 a.m.,

and I can't say I understand it,

but I am trying to return the favor,

to be the friend I couldn't be before

because against every odd, you have always been there for me.
