Best Friend

Best Friend

A Poem by Vertigo Cat1111
"

I believe that we have two soulmates... your significant other and your best friend.

"
Best friend
My dearest best friend
I'll be with you until the end
My darling best friend

You are my knight in shining armor
No matter what they say of you, best friend
You saw the good in me
Healed the bad in me
And you set me free

When I felt wicked
You showed me I was misunderstood
There's no such thing as just bad and good
By my side is where you stood

And threw the painful endless nights
I was on the floor giving up
While you kept throwing your fists in a fight
A fight for me
You were my lighthouse

And what a sight to behold
You're my best friend
And yet you're so much more
When I'm weak you pull out your sword

You defend
Till the end
You pulled me out of the red
My heart needed to be mended
And you mended it so I could finally live again
Best friend

True friendship is something that we really want to treasure.... You described it so strongly. Especially the line where you compare it with light house
... Exactly true friends never let you wander in the dark
.. Love your expressions.... Keep writing

Now this one spoke to me. I may get different versions of this than you intend. But to me anyone that write how a friend is loyal is rare being now days. Hope my review makes sense to you.

Thank you so much! I hope you’re having a good morning (:
I've always been single, but I've had many male best friends over the years & some were/are married. I agree that being a best friend is a different dynamic than being a spouse & many times both kinds of energy are needed to balance out a person, as described in your poem. Sometimes a spouse can be super supportive, but lots of times it seems to be a bit of a competitive setup between spouses, & then it's great to have someone who is always 100% in your court, but also someone who helps you grow by gently showing where you're mistaken. You describe this best friend as all these things & even more, very effectively (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful comment, it really does help. (:
We all need someone to fight our corner for us. A best friend is priceless, especially when the tide turns against us.

Lucky if you have a soul mate. So important to have a best friend who will fight your corner and who is there for you when you need it. Some nice poetic expression here. Friendship is incredibly important.

It is a blessing in life to have such a friend; you are fortunate, and so is your friend, because you immortalized him/her in your poem.

Thank you so much, your words are so kind, and I didn't even think about immortalizing it at first.... read more
What I feel from this is something I relate to. My friendships have always been stronger than my romantic relationship...more of an ease of sharing...and a closeness from that that isn't matched
in a relationship...maybe because we become afraid that the "honesty would be too much"---as Dan Hill sang.
