If those books have been downloaded from your account to the Kindle, and the Kindle is still registered to your account, it's completely in accordance with Amazon's terms and conditions, and is in no way piracy.
You are not
giving your friend your ebook library, you are
loaning them your ebook library. They have it only until you take the Kindle back, or the Kindle breaks.
