To be your own Best Friend

To be your own Best Friend

A Poem by apocalypse
"

"Just got bugged by teens with statuses " you don't know how it feels to be your own best friend" ..so yeah, this is just a randomn write"

"

I don't see why you complain

I don't understand how it hurts

And why exactly it is pathetic

To be your own best friend

 

Why being the only one

To understand your person

Should be a bother

And how dealing with your own issues

Makes you a loner

 

Having company,a trusted cohort

A little love to get you through

A speck of concern..unconditional

Would make that picture perfect ...I understand

 

Though Tthe lack of it

To have your own "cursed" self

As your only persistent friend

Would mean life's being cruel

And that you're darned

Is another bizarre notion.. That sets me wondering

 

Friends and love are treasures

They need to be kept safe

Despite all you do

those gems might be lost ..

To life's uncertainities

 

You might go through endless tides

Without another set of footprints

But even that won't stay

There'll have to be a new dawn

And with it will come..

The love you've longed for

 

Just until then

How hard is it?

To love the friend within

To show some warmth

To the lost innate comrade

 

The secret behind that perennial smile

The evergreen optimism

That will to live.. Beyond all despair

Comes from love..For self ..

And in all seasons

How hard would it be ..to grasp that

Or atleast give it a shot!

 

Being your own best friend

Why feel sorry for it?

Atleast you'll know what failed you

When another one steps in..

hmm.. reminds me of "2 can keep a secret if one of 'em is dead" .. I mean yeah i agree some people may think its pathetic but sometimes the things that hurt you most are best kept to your ownself .. believe me !! i learnt that the hard wayy .. But we mustnt alienate ourselves from the unconditional love and support

Nice write as usual. I liked the 7th para the most though. :D

Haven't exactly figured out the "What i am" aspect of me. Self-introspection doesn't happen to be one my best talents. I am intrigued by the morose nuances of life, but that doesn't make me any less.. more..
