The Yellow Rose of Friendship

Posted Jun 13, 2021 · 19 lines · 3 critiques

This yellow rose of friendship
a tie between two friends

Someone to give me a hug
When life seems at an end

Someone who understands
all my hopes and fears

Someone who is there
and wipes away my tears

Someone who knows
of my sad loss

Of my best friend
so far away has gone

someone who knows
Why I am so forlorn

Read the rest of the poem Show less

Someone who has seen
my ocean of tears

Thank you is not enough
For you. my friend

You're here
