An Unknown Friend Damien Dahr

a man i know has come along
reading all of my poetry.
he talks to me for moral support.
a man who is great at a sport.
the sport i talk about is friendship you see.
a strange to both you and me. 
if you're the stranger
reading my post
you are now a friend 
i will gladly be your host.
when people look down on me
with their agonizing words
you're always there 
sticking up for me.
being an unknown friend. 
a stranger yes
but a fine one indeed
a friend i would like, let alone need
so if you accept my invite to you.
i would like to think of myself as your friend too.
