for long hours I waited <br />for a friend true <br />for a friend like you <br />I waited long. <br />Then from a far off distance <br />I saw you <br />and found a true friend in you. <br />I wanted a friend who'd listen to my cries <br />wipe off my tears <br />without any lies. <br />In you I found <br />a friend who'd quietly listen to me <br />who's never about I and is all about WE <br />Such a friend I found in you <br />with an attitude so very true. <br />People said am crazy and am mad <br />they said things about me that were bad. <br />They found it awkward <br />because I found a true friend in a tree, <br />in you. <br />But how do I explain to them <br />I had no friend and I found you then. <br />A true standing so tall <br />above me and under the sky for times so long.<br /><br />Areena Arora<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/for-times-i-waited-long/
