PURE FRIENDSHIP COMES WHENCE EGOS BLEED

By chance, we meet and click together,Memories of the day are fresh as ever!Jointly we planned a voyage of dreams—To encounter the odds in our life together.
If you said ‘stop’, we stopped together,If I said ‘laugh’, we laughed together;Social codes, though, differently planned—To dash the hopes of a joint endeavour.
“Go, dear friend!”, we then, did crow- “Life is a bundle of ecstasy,and sorrows;Hope drives mankind, hope sustains life, Certainly, we’ll meet somewhere tomorrow.”


Tears came down as we painfully broke,The Sun in the distance emitted rays of hope; Life has moved over ‘roughs’ and ‘troughs’-Never did we know we could singly cope.
We had, then, made promises together-“Let us be friends, in life, for ever.”Miles and miles we have drifted, today-As I review the dream that was never.
You said and forgot and forgot for ever, I had heard and learnt and learnt for ever;Goodness must be taken, evil discarded –While one moves with rogues and clever .
“As friends”, you said, “We must not explain,Whatever one says is the truth contained”;No doubts, friend! This laid the foundation--Of mutual confidence without any strain.
‘Friend or a foe’, greet with a smiling face-The spirit defined you in up and down phase; Wonder! If you feel now, cut above the rest- For, you certainly show some inhuman graces.
Other day I felt, dear, humiliated so much, When you boasted of a “MIDAS” touch;Humbly, I remind you of our golden rule--“Greatness must show, not claimed as such.”
I know not for sure, I do have a hunch—People around you, must be sycophants;True friends emerge when crisis befall- Fair-weather-birds, fly away in a bunch.
I do plead to you, as it is time to plead –For, a friend in need is a friend indeed! Live your dream but trust people with care-"For, pure friendship comes whence egos bleed.”
