True Friend

By Aurora_Light

I've never had a true friend,
Like the one you said you were.
I never thought to look for one,
I never saw a need.
Why tell someone about my life,
I've never done a great deed.
And so with this in my mind,
I asked why it was so.
You were quiet for a moment,
Then just simply said,
"I konw the real you".
You know the real me!
That just can't be!
I don't ever know the me deep down.
So how can you to whom I rarely talk,
Know the real me?
Know my feelings,
My imagination, my every thought.
The first and only true friend I really need,
Is the true friend that's the real me.

    Sometime one can know all they need to without knowing every depth. Unconditional Friendship, like Unconditional Love, is a wonderful gift. Loved the work, and the Aurora, which is what drew me to your page. Scholar

    I would say that in order to have any true friends you first have to be one to yourself, then they will come (and some will go) but the ones that stick around are worth it

    It is amazing when people actualy do feel "your core". And it is not frustrating at all if they realy do. It is hard to believe it to be true. And there will allways be doubts. I loved it Light. A very good write, capturing a hard topic.

    It seems harder and harder to find true friends. Those of us who have some depth to our minds are somehow cast into our lonely lives with few ways to find true friends who can comprehend and understand. Nice job!
