Friendship And Hardship




Why is it all coming out now? 

I whisper to myself, trying to slow the tears down, 

Thoughts that lingered, emotions concealed, 

Now erupting, a flood, my heart unsealed. 

 

My worst fears mocked, you called them a jest, 

But to me, they’re real, a heavy unrest. 

I sought your help, hoping you’d understand, 

Yet when tears filled my eyes, alone I would stand. 

 

I suppress and I hide, fill my cup to the brim, 

Then chaos unfolds, as emotions swim. 

When you saw me overflow, you turned, walked away, 

Leaving me lost, confused, led astray. 

 

You judged me for burdens, called them too sad, 

Once full of joy, now your laughter turned mad. 

You shattered my confidence, broke peace into shards, 

It took time to mend and to lower my guards. 

 

As joy slipped away, slowly replaced by sadness, 

I wore a facade, painted smiles in my madness. 

Three years have passed; I have become someone new, 

Afraid that my truth wouldn’t be liked or deemed true. 

 

But then came a love that shattered the night, 

I cried, "How can this be?"—a heart filled with light. 

You listen with care when I’m lost in the fight, 

And together we share the burdens that bite. 

 

You notice the whispers, the details, the small, 

Being there for each other, we answer the call. 

We stitch up the pieces, both broken and whole, 

In this bond we’ve discovered, I’m finally bold. 

 

I learned of a magic I once thought was a myth, 

That friendship exists, a true, precious gift. 

Through emptiness felt, I thought all was lost, 

But you showed me the way, despite the cost. 

 

I’m grateful for struggles, for tears, and for pain, 

For you stood by my side, through sunshine and rain. 

No matter the mistakes, you chose to stay near, 

In sadness and joy, together we cheer. 

 

You taught me to open, to trust, and be wise, 

To separate good from the guise of the lies. 

No more lukewarm waters, no pretending at all, 

I speak with my voice, and I rise when I fall. 

 

Through laughter and shadows, we sift through dust, 

Reviving the dreams, in our friendship, I trust. 

Once used and discarded, I now stand anew, 

With friends by my side, together we grew. 

 

In the depths of trials, our bond stands strong, 

Through tempest and turmoil, where we both belong. 

With you by my side, I discover sweet peace, 

A cherished connection that will never cease. 

 

Through storms we have weathered, our spirits entwined, 

You’ve kindled my heart with love that’s refined. 

Your presence is a beacon, my soul’s gentle guide, 

In the warmth of your friendship, I take my stride. 

 

With every moment shared, I find renewal anew, 

Transformed by your kindness, as if born from the blue. 

Together we flourish, a harmony grand, 

In the garden of friendship, forever we stand.

Close Friends

 


I’m finally over my crush!

Yes, he used to make my heart rush,

Now it’s just friendship that runs through my veins,

He was always there for me, even when it rained,

When I told him I liked him, he looked shocked,

Later, I told him that it was over, because a new friendship was unlocked.

 

Our Parents and siblings are close, we call each other family,

Sometimes we goof around, act silly,

Other times, we get serious, I love our deep conversations,

I believe we fill each other with inspiration,

He’s seen me embarrass myself,

He has also seen me cry for help.

 

At my best or worst, he’s there,

He’s my close friend, he cares,

He encourages me, even when he feels down,

He always tries to make me smile when I frown,

He reminds me he’s there when I need a listening ear,

He tells me, “I’m always here.”

 

I try to remind him of the same,

Sometimes it feels like he thinks I’m lame,

Then I remember how long we’ve been friends,

I know this relationship won't end!

I’m so glad we crossed each other’s paths when we were young,

It allowed us to grow together through the great and the things that stung,

 

He’s one of three friends who helped me through the worst breakup of my friendships,

We’ve been through many hardships,

We support each other when we have tough mountains to climb,

Not everything we’ve faced can we define,

We’ve stuck together, no matter the weather,

I know we will be friends forever.

Through The Night


 

There are a few moments when I don’t feel stressed. I know I’m not like the rest, but sometimes, I wish

My life wasn’t such a mess.

All I am is a person trying their hardest not to fail, but I won’t let my enemy prevail.

Lost, I’m close to hopelessness, and I can’t stop my journey, for I trust who I follow and refuse to be

Faithless.

Many people try to tear me down, but they forget that my leader has the crown.  

The enemy continues throwing their punches, they won’t hesitate to bring a fight, they can try while I

Wear the armor that protects me through the night.
