In joy and in sorrows, they stand by your side
Through life's best and worst by your side, they reside
Their presence a guiding yet guarding light
A light that makes our life journeys bright
In good or bad news, they listen with open ears
And they remain in your side to trail your fears
With constant bonding and presence, cherished memories are made
Memories so dear to our hearts, body, and souls; it can never fade
In pains and torment, they won't leave even for a day
On your sides, they stay with no aim of running away
Like angels, they try to create a peaceful yet harmonious path
With wisdom, they help you find your inner strength
They are always there to keep you calm and hold you tight
Through your nighttime and nightmare until your day is bright
They will always help you find the suitable way
To go about smiling each new day
So, with love, cherish friends, and to you keep them close
And your love for each other would grow like rose
With each other company, you'll rock the skies
And between you all, there won't be any goodbyes

Such a powerful poem, Akorah. And very mature (I read your bio; and am impressed that you are only in grade 9 - I'm assuming around 14/15 years old) Please write more. And you're right, life without friends would be a very sad one indeed.
