Friends

Friends

A Poem by caseymichelle31
"

I was looking through photos of me with my friends and I had a sudden realisation of how much I owe them for all they've done for me...so I wrote this :')

"
A familiar face to pick you up,
When everything feels like it's falling down

A welcoming hug to make you shine,
When the world seems so black and cold

A warm smile to make you feel loved
When it feels like you are hated from below and above

A fire in my heart,
The flames still burning bright.
Where would I be without my friends?

Definitely not myself,
The fire would long be burnt out
Life still would be a game of pretend.

There's so much I have to thank them for,
Yet I don't think those words have ever escaped these lips.

I hope they know,
I hope they know how much they mean to me,
Yet I don't think that phrase has ever passed through these lips.

They accept me for who I am and what I am,
Despite all these faults and they
Need to know that surrounded by them is where my heart resides

Every day is a celebration,
Every day is a joy,
Every day is full of hope
Alongside my partners in crime.

Because of them there's no longer a reason to hide
With these friends close by my side,

There's no way I could be any happier.

Author's Note

"True friendship multiplies the good in life and divides its evils. Strive to have friends, for life without friends is like life on a desert island… to find one real friend in a lifetime is good fortune; to keep him is a blessing."

Friends really are a great thing to have, especially in the hardest moments of life. I don't know where I'd be without the best friends I have. It took me a long time to realize that it's the quality of friends you have, not the quantity. This poem is a very sweet tribute to those friends of yours. Bravo!

Great job with this! There is no price you can pay that would amount to the cost of our dearest friends. Fantastic job expressing friendship and the growth of togetherness. :)
