Mike Gentile Poet Rhyme

An Empty Heart

A friend’s burden is not your own
     Your ears may tire of bending
But blessed be the one who cares
     With love and guidance sending

Friendship is a two way street
     People are imperfect
A burden shared is a great gift
     To one in need and searching

Forgive a friend, see their value
     Help them if you can
Don’t live with an empty heart
     In a gray world without friends
