In Search of a Perfect Friend

a poem by Raja Shahnawaz Soni

During my school days I met a boy
Who was full of happiness and joy.
With me he would everything share
And in this way for each other we would care.

But a time came when we parted away
And never came together even till today
So began the journey to search a friend
And at last my search came to an end.

I found another excellent guy,
Who was very intelligent but a little shy
I thought I don’t have to search any friend life long
But after a certain period I realised I was wrong.

Death snatched him away from me
And again for a good friend I am thirsty
So once more I am on a journey to perfect friend
Hope this journey soon comes to an end.
