Poem 59

friends

walls shouldn’t exist
in the presence of a friend
a mate for whom
you’d bend over backwards to help
walk across broken glass
as their well being,
their sense of self
is paramount.
when the time comes
when they bare their soul
they cry in your arms
you mop their tears
you smile knowing their pain
hold them
feel them rail against the world
but knowing
they will do the same
when your moment comes by.

  1. Very true! Beautifully expressed!! 🙂 🙂

  2. Friendships that can develop in the strangest ways at times, friendships even when people have not even physically met, friendships to hold each other up, to hear their pain, to dry their tears, to hold their hand. This is beautiful Michael and I am glad that I am your friend 🙂 (hugs)
