F.R.I.E.N.D.S

dedicated to the few people i treasure as my friends

they say good friends are few
the only ones who are true to you

no matter how harshly this world shows its intentions to sue
they'll never believe in what others construe against you

friends stay with you through thick and thin
they are your "steroids" when you are pain stricken

even the most treacherous paths traversed with them
makes for a memorable getaway that satiates the inner stem

and there comes a time when you fall short of procuring even a single dime
when all that you do, is considered analogous to a petty crime

left all alone in wilderness, you have no hopes of surviving
but your friends come to your rescue , bringing along aides to keep you striving

that's all i can say to always be under your sway ...

sorry if the ending seems abrupt to you

There is no greater treasure on earth than a true friend... one who rides the waves of the sea with you, through calm winds and wild storms. This powerfully expresses your dedication to those who have been in your life and who you honor with the title friend.. So well done.

Friendship, true friendship, is hard work and hard to find. But definitely worth absolutely everything put into it. This poem explains friendship so well! The ending was a little abrupt, but the poem itself was fantastically written.
