"A True Friend"

Adopted into a role accepting many responsibilities

Safeguarding secrets one is willing to share

Conditioned to bear the burden of  self-pities

Available upon request with an open ear.

 

An alter ego with an ego

Carpooling similar dreams in life

Understanding all that is inevitable

Checking positions that don’t seem right.

 

Trust and honesty are the prerequisites

One is only needed till the end

Thoughtful but this is an act of selfishness

Chosen hoping I won’t have to do so again.

 

Casting shadows upon each other

Watching a rear with an eye of an eagle

A blessing from above has been delivered to ya

Withstanding any signs of betrayal.

 

Irreplaceable for reasons left unspoken

Embodied with morals and values so profound

A shoulder in sight for a heart that may be broken

Always assuring your feet are on solid ground.

 

Find yours...

I have mine…!!!
