Friend

a poem by Nidhi

When I met you,
It was fine,
When I talked to you,
I knew you were my kind.
And when we laughed together
I could see the shine
Same in your eyes as in mine.
That moment I realized
I had found a friend
Whom I could call mine.
It all begun then
We laughed and giggled like two school-girls
Who seemed inseparable and related;
‘Yes we were’ – with the bond of friendship.
The bond so strong
Had proved everything wrong
In no time were we the best of chums.
We’ve been through ups and downs Together.
We’ve fought against rights and wrongs Together.
We’ve shared each other’s pleasure Together.
We’ve bore each other’s pain Together.
We’ve experienced separation.
But that certainly didn’t lead to termination
And here we are, still going strong
Trying to prove every myth wrong.
