You Then Need A Friend Poem by Ravi Kopra

There are times when
you are fully overtaken
by work, household, family, finances
and a million trivial things

Your emotions take the best of you
you want to run away from this world
somewhere to be yourself in solitude

You then need a friend
on whose shoulders you can lean on
and let yourself go of feelings
a friend you can trust
a friend who listens to you
and you do not have to call
two seven three talk.
