Before you read this poem I'd like to warn you how much complicating it would get. <br />I hope you understand it though, it's a poem for a great friend.. <br /> <br />A life of doubt is what I held, <br />screaming here and there, until I was filled with depression <br />Decisions in every corner <br />that threatens a life and kills a reputation. <br /> <br />I was sitting yet again in a hot seat <br />questions revolved around me <br />jumbled thoughts in my head as I wait for answers to pop out <br />But its all blank and filled with confusion <br />should i let it be? <br /> <br />I tried to runaway from all these pressure <br />Runaway and escape for good <br />But as I stare into the night sky I realized <br />that runing away does nothing <br />so I was blinded and long there I stood. <br /> <br />Until a stranger stood beside me, <br />concerned, I see in his face <br />he was asking what was wrong <br />It felt awkward at first <br />and silence broke, <br />but he waited, and he waited so long. <br /> <br />Because guilt trapped me up <br />I was forced to tell him the reason, <br />I struggled at first and swallowed my words <br />wondering and thinking of what to say. <br /> <br />I finally found a way to start it, <br />but it was pointless until I got comfortable with his company, <br />And I told him everything, from gossips to worries <br />and to problems that were filled with fury. <br /> <br />I started to burst in tears so he leaned forward <br />As he patted my back and soothed my pain <br />I felt warmth of a true heart <br />I was helpless beside him as I sobbed and weeped. <br /> <br />And from that point on he was my friend <br />and he was my best listener, he was my brother <br />I felt safe with him around, I trusted him fully <br />in every way, in every phrase, he was a great advicer. <br /> <br />I shall never forget the goodness in him, <br />though were still young I can see now <br />That he will be the greatest friend of every person he knew <br />I hope the candle of our friendship will never dim out. <br /> <br /> <br />-nash<br /><br />Nashy Lamen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-friend-indeed-7/
