A True Friend

He was more than the story told
of peace and love
he was like my gold

he was a friend
of nothing more than me
and person, a spirit
and caring thing

he is always there for me
as I was
when I adopted him
at fifteen

I saw the look in his eyes
a sad story
with a strong little guy

The black coat
over him 
the bold look 
not very thin

the star deep into
his eyes
the love and strength
and all pride

he then came home and
became mine
we were always together
and never wasted our time

he just played and pushed
me down
the moments and laughter
of being crowed 

the story begins and 
always will
with a best friend 
until the end.
