friend (from “unsung songs”)

February 7, 2013
a poet's playground, alternate avenues, evocative muse

will
you stay
till the end
be my friend
not ask
only answer
with a smile
when my heart is weak


hold me tighter
on days
that rain upon my soul

 

let me speak
bold
knowing
i am timid
amid the fold

 

i shall
promise
the same
being strong
on days
when your soul aches
i shall
take
sweet care
for a friendship
should bear
all weight

 

seal this
with
a kiss
soul to soul
