A Friend
Amidst the clouds in my head
I stood on the edge of the cliff
I shouted one last time
Yet no one arrived
My heart filled with grief
I was about to take a step back
When a voice ringed in my ears
The sweet voice I was used to hear
She sat in the front row
Her chocolate brown skin reminded me of the earth
She glanced at me once perhaps she was shy
An introvert I thought
Later I found out the similarities we shared
We were bonded my friendship
And the rest lies in history
She was there with me
In times of joy and sadness
Her free self
That I watched from close
When I was nervous or so was she
we held hands tightly
I wish to continue such a friendship
That will always remain a part of me
