Forever Friends

By your side through thick and thin
Helping you through your struggles
You can finally be yourself around them
Best friends are such a blessing

They’ll let you talk the most
When you normally talk the least
They’ll compliment you every day 
When nothing’s even changed

You’re always welcome with them
When you’re not welcome anywhere else
You could talk and talk for hours 
If life didn’t get in the way

You know what they’re saying with just one glance
They know how you feel by the way you stand
And words can’t express your gratitude
That they’re sharing this part of their life with you

  • the beach

    the beach 
    a theme written about so often
    that it may seem overdone
    boring, even
    who doesn’t like the beach?

    but the beach is so much more
    than poems 
    so much more than pictures 
    it is a feeling 
  • Solo

    Running through the woods, away from it all
    Her feet pounding like drums and her heart beating a fast tempo
    Away from all the noise, from the music in her head that was so hard to escape
  • The Power of Red

    Red is, in one word, intense
    It is chic red dresses and vermillion lips and roses 
    It’s the start of the rainbow and the blushing cheeks of the easily embarrassed
    It’s the sunset on a scorching day in July
