A Tribute To A Truthful Friend

There is Something So Powerful About Encouragement From A Friend

Published on April 20, 2005 By NotSoSmellySarah In Personal Relationships

Take my shoulder,
Its yours to saturate with sorrows,
I'll reach out for you across forever,
Cause somehow you'll still feel my grasp,
Truth sets us free,
Knowing all I have to be,
Is your friend,
All I need is your smiling face,
Knowing we're both looking for our place,
In all of this,
Knowing God has collided our worlds,
For such a time as this,
I just want you to know,
That you never have to go,
That you can always show,
Who you really are,
Cause you know,
I'll never want anymore,
That what we already are.

Friendship is a powerful thing. It is highly unapreciated. People are so busy searching for relationships that they don't realize how wonderful just having a really good friend can be. I can't begin to tell you how I feel right now so I'm not gonna try but I will say this, true friends are hard to come by so hold on to them no matter what.

You couldn't be more right, and that's all I have to say....nothing else to add.

I do...

It's strange how you hear about people only having one or two great friends, and I often find myself feeling sorry for those people, because off the top of my head I can think of 5 that I have. They're all great people and the time I've known each of them runs from, when I was born, almost 18 years ago to just a couple years.

I can't see myself ever letting go of any of them either. And you're right, I shouldn't let go of them anyways.

Nice poem.

Capt. over and out!

This is wonderful Sarah. You never cease to amaze me.

Sometimes you just forget how special your friends are, and how blessed you are for having them.

Thank you for the reminder.
