My Friend...I Seek...

A friend who listens…
When you have a problem..offers to help..
Provide solace when you are in despair
Not interrupt to speak of their own ishh..
Criticize and judge…
Such is the friend we seek...

A friend who offers support..
Provides a shoulder to lean on..
The strength that you need..when you feel weak..
The Armour when you feel defeated and hopeless…
A friend who gives you hope…..
Stands by you in difficulties…
That is the friend i seek...

A friend who is selfless..
Exceeds your expectations…
..sacrifices, compromises for the sake of friendship…
A friend who not only takes, but also gives….
That is the friend we need...


True, loyal,considerate and caring…
Not one who wants to compete..
Back-stab, talk ill…
Laugh at you when you are down…
Is envious of your successes…
Tries to sabotage….
indeed that's not a friend...

A friend who respects who you are.
Respects your space;your time....
Knows the lines and boundaries...
A friend who is dignified...
..one you are proud to call a friend...
Your confidant....your kindred spirit....


Such is the friend we seek,but sadly very rare...
You are surrounded by pretentious,opportunistic...
Self-centered ones...
..who only seek to bring you down...
Not caring what you are going through..
In hard times..they are nowhere
When you cry..you cry alone..
They are nowhere in sight..
..Only there when all is rosy...
Such are the friends who are in our lives.....

But i refuse to settle for shame..
I refuse to surround myself with falseness..
Negativity and drama....
I will wait for the friend I seek...
A true friend who builds not destroys....
