Treasure Found At An Early Age
True friendships
True Friendships.
To me , dear friend
You always were a rock.
A rock withstanding
every test of time.
You were the beacon
in my darkest night.
Though, cruelest critic
of my every crime.
.................................
You were the warmest glow
Of all my youth.
Tenacious treasure
From a tinsel world.
The depth of feeling
I now hold so dear
Became apparent
As our lives unfurled.
................................
Now, when I think
Of all you meant to me.
Of all the times you
were my comfort, when
I fell, uncertain
Into ventures new,
I know, you now mean more
To me than ever then
