Friendship

"Friendship"

Birds chirp, honey of a melody of nature although we don't understand, as to the very ancient hieroglyphics. From there to ere to there, feelings, can be touched, hearts mended and emotions captured through the conceiving of one's mind... To fly away... Just fly away to lead you and I don't drink! Why paint a picture? The truth behind this reality is formulating something richer. When life rains its turbulence in heavy torrents, when disaster strikes your nerves, when the world seems to crush your surroundings, leaving you physically, mentally and emotionally scared. Lend my your ear. Friendship is honesty, perseverance, patience and willingness to open up, rather than being timid... Friendship means dependability, keeping one's word in the heat of struggle. The immature people are masters of the alibis. They are confused and disorganised. Their lives are a maze of broken promises, former friends, and unfinished business with good intentions that somehow never, materialised friendship is the ability to connect mentally, it's lasting longevity, loyalty to understand what one may face. The hardship, agony to feel the pain of the struggle. Friendship is beautiful, bleeding its beauty through what draws you over.

To feel comfortable, smooth, soothing, without being rough nor blemished...

When you heard the sound of what you do not understand...

Bird's chirp...

Human's understand...

Hi Jack,

I just want you to know that I am deeply moved by your poetry. It contained some of the best writing that I've read in a long. There was so much depth, and honesty, and truth to your words. Thank you for sharing your beautiful thoughts to the world. I will remember you in my prayers. I truly truly hope that things turn around for you because the world needs more voices like yours if it's going to be a better place.

Warm regards,
Courtney
