My Best Friend



I can tell that you are going through a lot
Believe me I'm someone who would know
I see the struggles you are facing
I've been down the same road

Your pain won't last forever
I thought mine would last that long
We feel our pain now but we won’t later
By then if we choose our pain will feel a lot better

If you ever need someone to talk to
If you ever feel you are lonely
Just know I'm here for you
Also know that you are part of my family

Don't focus on your pain
Focus on all your progress
I know it seems you've lost a lot
But there's still more for you to gain
Just remember all of your SUCCESS

Life will always knock you down
But it's your choice to get back up
Don't be ashamed to have a frown
If you get back up, you have some luck

Take deep breaths and sit back
Everything will be A okay
And just calm down and relax
Either now or another day

Everyone you come across or meet
They are fighting a lot of battles
And a whole bigger and dangerous war
That we don't know anything about

Whenever you get knocked down and fall
Whenever you need someone to talk to
I will be here to answer when you call
I will be available to go for a walk

Do not at all ever forget
Everything you were taught
All these years you've learned a lot
I hope you will remember that

Be a star in the night
Be the shine in the light
I will  always be your friend
All the way to the very end
Because you have always been my best friend

It is always okay when you
You aren't weak if you cry
Don't listen to all the haters
Because they are living a big lie

About this poem

It originally was about one of best friend who was struggling with a lot to help her but then I came to realize that it also helped other people feel care, loved, wanted, and not alone.
