Notice of absence from Friendship
Thank you for your kind words and friendship; however, I must take a temporary leave of absence for several months to provide care and support to a friend, out of state.❤️
Thank you for your kind words and friendship; however, I must take a temporary leave of absence for several months to provide care and support to a friend, out of state.❤️
I know I trace the same old line,
Repeat the thoughts, both yours and mine.
A constant echo, soft and low,
The insecurity I deeply know.
It hums beneath each word I weave,
A quiet fear I can't quite leave.
But in this heart, a fire burns,
For what I do, for what it learns.
For things I build, for things I make,
A silent faith for goodness' sake.
I need one soul to truly see,
To trust the spark residing in me.
There’s no one left within my ken,
No friendly voice to call again.
This world's a quiet, empty room,
Enveloped in a lonely gloom.
To walk this path, so stark, so wide,
With not another by my side.
And I confess, I lean on you,
More than I ever meant to do.
But you're the last, the only tie,
My dearest family, 'neath this sky.
It's hard, this weight, this silent plea,
Just for someone to believe in me.
To have that anchor, strong and true,
A steadfast friend, reliable, new—
Who won't abandon me, nor stray,
And understands the lonely way.
This quiet ache, this endless night,
A yearning for a guiding light.
I long for trust that will not bend,
A loyal, true, unwavering friend.
That deep security, so blessed,
To finally put my fears to rest.
And in my soul, I know it's you,
My constant star, my world made new.

What a friend...
I thank you for stopping by and reading my poem,2781. Yes indeed❤️
I enjoyed the flow, and my interpretation of the meaning, whether I am correct or not is not relevant. What I can say is there is never a need to feel lonely, and I suspect you will have a very exciting time, doing what you need to do
Hoo Roo...
A beautiful poem of friendship and reliance. When one is small or weak when relies on someone big or strong, but as we grow, we learn to rely upon our self and then no matter how many leave us or if we are alone, we always have our own company For that will never leave us a lovely poem
I thank you for stopping by and reading my poem, Sorenbarrett, and yes, you are absolutely right that in the end, we have ourselves to rely on, but sometimes we just need that one person to believe in us and empower us to reach new heights. Maybe it's a weak point in me! But I am who I am.
You are most welcome
What an absolutely delightful poem you have given us today .. The depiction of love, trust and associated unconditionality permeate throughout .. exquisite aint just a word .. this whole page is a fine example of it .. Neville 😎🌻🌹🥀👍
I thank you for stopping by and reading my poem, Neville, and most of all, for your kind words. ❤️
If you need a "loyal, true, unwavering friend." that involves a requirement to reveal yourself to them, I'm afraid...
Smooth read.
I thank you for stopping by and reading my poem, 'Doggerel Dave.' So true, I have been married to my husband for 47 years.
