For The Daily Post’s Daily Prompt: Friend
For My Dear Friend – You Know Who You Are
(A Simple Ditty)
©March 21st, 2016
By Vijaya Sundaram
My love for my friend.
Is so simple, so right.
My love doesn’t end,
Or fade in daylight.
When I’m blue or gray
And my thoughts go astray,
When I’m down and out
And filled with much doubt,
She’s there by my side
And her love abides.
And when she needs me
I’ll be there, you see.
I’ll be there in sun
In laughter and fun.
I’ll be there in rain,
Again and again.
We’ll let down our guard,
And not try too hard.
We’ll listen and soothe.
Rough edges we’ll smooth.
We’ll sing and we’ll share,
Try not to compare.
We’ll defend each other,
Like sisters or brothers.
When I prop her up
And she does the same,
We’ll drink from one cup,
And share our true names.
