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
