Someone Like You

For Ricco aka YanZeros on WC, my newfound friend and the best I could ever have :)

                   You may have met a thousand like me 

                         But never before have I met 

                                Someone like you 

                          

                            You want to know why? 

                  'Cause there maybe thousands ready

                           To listen to your rambles 

                               But no one for me 

                                For that, I want

                               Someone like you 

                         Who would listen endlessly 

                                To my rambles?  

                          Unflinching, unwavering 

                    Always with a good advice or two 

                                      Except

                               Someone like you

 

                        With occasional flirtations 

                                From your side 

                     And silly flatterings from me 

                            I wish this friendship 

                            Remains the way it is. 

                           'Cause finally I realized 

                               I never will have 

                              Someone like you 

                             (Though you might)

Author's Note

This is the first piece which I really have written from my heart.

Reviews

[BlackRose]

I can tell it's from your heart. Best things can come out of ones heart. Alot of mine are from my heart in some ways or another, whole or partly. Much enjoyed reading this wonderful piece. Such true feelings exude from it. Would we all want someone like that.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Well most of my works aren't straight from the heart so I felt the needed to clarify that this one is 😉 and that's 'cause I'm nearly heartless 😛
Thank you for liking this one! Means a lot to me ☺

[BlackRose]

That's fine, nothing wrong that. Heartless you say, I wouldn't say you are, but just speak the thoughts that come to mind needed or wanting to be put out there. 😉

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Hahaha I experienced what happens when you do speak out your mind here today!😛
So, I guess I'm gonna be the same old me from now on 😉

[BlackRose]

Go on with your bad self! 😛 I've experienced some things too in my time, lol. 😛 And I'll always be the same old me. 😉

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Haha it's good being bad in actual but not so when it's online on sites like these! 😉

[BlackRose]

Well, not on here depending that's true. In actual, who cares, haha!

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Hahaha true indeed! 😛

ok i know this poem, it is like the poem of my life, i just random picked one of your work, but i didnt expect it to hit me this hard

good write

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Thank you so much! I'm glad it touched you as well! Really appreciate it! ☺

[Jibey]

From the heart and so honest and attractive.. . Even online friendship can reach depths hard to match in reality... Though which is real?

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Thank you, Jibey! I think friendship is what matters.. You have got to really reach out, and for that distance doesn't matter.. ☺

[Jibey]

I agree... and how wonderfully we can reach each other through our words... the gateway to our minds and souls...

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Yes indeed! 😊

[YanZeros]

Thank you very much Yumna for this poetry :) . I am so happy and proud to be your friend. And its one of the best things that ever happen to me this year. Stay cool my dear friend :P

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Me too, Ricco! I feel blessed to have you! I'm happy you liked it! Consider it a new year gift 😂

[YanZeros]

haha Thank you Yumna! :) :P

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Welcome!😊💜

Lovely tribute to new found friends.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Thank you so much for liking! ☺

Your message of loving friendship feels sincere & simple & true-to-heart. I find that my best poems are usually the ones written "to" someone (not always in love or friendship, but also as a discussion of some topic). I have made many good friends here at WritersCafe & I hope this turns out well for both of you! Thanks for sharing!

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Well, I have a long way to go before I can start writing on certain topics like you do..
I think most of us write about what's missing in our lives, and for me it was this until sometime ago 😉
Thank you for liking this one ,BG! Means alot 😊

[barleygirl]

I'm 60 & I never had the courage to write my truth until just in the past couple years. It takes a lot of courage to stand naked in just your words! Thanks for the kudos! (((HUGS)))

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Yes it does.. But for me writing is far easier than saying all of it in person... Speaking out is even harder than writing, I think..

[barleygirl]

Most definitely! I would be tongue-tied if I tried to express myself deeply & verbally!

[Dr. YumnaKay]

I guess this inability turns us towards writing *sigh*

[M. L. F.]

Total agrreance with barley girl.. She is wise.. ;) I have gleaned life long friends and More... from this community.. 😊

[Dr. YumnaKay]

I hope that for myself too.. And thank you for your sharing your thoughts here ☺

[M. L. F.]

You are always welcome!

I have seen many friendships grow into lasting ones on WC including sone amazing ones of my own. A sweet poem to a dear friend. Much appreciated. Please keep up the great writing.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Yes, well it is indeed a blessing to have such great friends and this place is full of 'em!
Thank you for liking, Divya! It means alot to me! 😊

[Ayvid N]

You are welcome YumnaKay
