Friendship

 

 

 

In this world of formal etiquettes

There must still exist a friendly heart

Which would feel along with its friend

And would not in trials break apart

 

Break apart it certainly does

At the sight of a suffering mate

But friends it loves deeply enough

To overlook the twists and turns of fate

 

Fate is something that does figure

In lives, by playing important roles

In governing petty and big events

Through personal and social loopholes

 

Loopholes have existed since the start

They can be found everywhere here

So even though one tries to give the best

Someone will always have to bear

 

Bear all must for decency’s sake

Sometimes retorting is not polite

And though smiles maybe forever lost

It is improper to go for an outright fight

 

Fight one does in many a way

With one’s limits to cherish a hope

But when a true friend is near and around

With struggles it becomes easier to cope

 

Cope we do with others and self

But if this is done with friends to cheer

Smiles would come more easily to us

And save us many an unshed tear
