A Friend

came to you the hour I was in pain
Looking for answers, I cried to you in vain.

I shared the many skeletons hiding in my heart,
I knew then you'd be my friend,
I knew it from the start.

Troubles ran like rivers, flowing through my life,
You picked the pieces up and help me through my strife.

When home wasn't home to me no more,
You opened up your heart, and opened up the door.

We cried into night until the early morn.
We solaced each others pain and shared our many thorns.

As time flew, the air grew thick,
I saw our friendship fading, and my heart grew sick.

The day had arrived,
When it was time to say goodbye.

Now I sit alone,
reminiscing the past I'd blown.

wow! what an emotional piece.
just lovely. I can relate to it so much. One of my best friends helped me through a very hard time in my life. she was in just as much pain (if not more) than i was. but we were able to help each other overcome some of the issues we were facing. We are not as close as we used to be and i miss her all the time. I hope that she knows what an amazing friend she was to me and i hope she knows that she saved me in a way...

*sigh*...sorry i wrote so much!
excellent work
