Friends

Prologue: The poem is about people who at times surpass blood relations in your life, people whom you can blindly trust and confide in. In my life, while some of them chose to leave, God inconsiderately took one by force; but this is what friends do to you, they leave you with memories, golden ones, to cherish when you wont have age on your side, waiting for the death ride.



I have read about friends and friendship
Not all of it is always true,
You will not like everything about them
Because of different things they have been through.

They will love you, have your back
And play a lot of pranks,
Never evaluate who is better or worse
Don't try to give them ranks.

It's not always how long you have been together
But also how close you are,
The things that you have in common and share
And how he heals your scars.

Feel blessed even if you have one friend
And value them until death,
If lucky fate will give you many more
Else you will end up writing poetry, mate!
