Making new friends

It is hard sometimes
to talk to you,
Cause it's not like I know
what you've been through.

But you don't know me,
either just yet.
And both have to give
for either to get.

I try to listen, while you don't talk.
I try to follow, when you don't walk.

I open my heart,
and give you the key.
If you never unlock it, 
you'll never know me.

Sometimes you're open
and welcome me in,
to hear your secrets,
stories, and sins.

And for those people,
I'm forever grateful. 
I hope you know,
I will always be faithful.
