I have a long time friend that occasionally brings out the worst in me and yet, she loves me as unfinished and sometimes broken as I am. While I have yet to learn how to comfort myself, somehow she can. And for that I am truly grateful.

This poem originally was published in Friendship Poems

Friends
Growing pains
Broken chains
A sad melody

Falling tears
Listening ears
A friend just for me

Reaching out
Sharing doubt
When life gets me down

Hands to clutch
Gentle touch
Can turn me around

Spoken words
Softly heard
Cognitivity

Holding tight
Loving light
Calm serenity
