Dear friend

Dear friend

A Poem by Lori Mack

Dear friend,
Life has given you quite the beating lately. I know your strong. But your human. I know you feel like you have to be invincible. But you don't and you aren't. I just wanted to let you know that in this crazy, busy, lonely world filled with greed, narcissism and pain I still see you. I see your pain.. Yes you are a chameleon and wear many masks for the ones you love. I do the same my friend that's why I still see you. I want to tell you it's going to be ok. But I won't. I don't want to lie to you. I wish I could take all this sadness away from you. But I can't... I just want you to know... I see you. I see your pain, your horror and your courage... I'm here.
Love you my friend.

Thank you. I just wanted my friend to know I still see him.
I liked this. Very sweet message. I don't know much about poetry but it read like a short letter and I liked that. You used the wrong "you're" a few times, but I knew what you meant lol

Thank you. It was a letter to a friend
May be addressed to a particular friend. May be addressed to humanity at large. Either way, it's nice to know somebody cares.
