What are you when you've got nothing?
Who are you when you've got no one?
Where do you stand when you're standing alone?
Where do you go when you've got no place to call home?

Well, you're only human and I can't blame you for that.
And you've always got me, and that's a fact.
I'll stand by you even if you're standing alone.
And you'll always have my heart to call your home.

I like to walk to a different beat,
So I can feel the earth beneath my feet.

Stay a while and smell the flowers,
Waltz my way through an april shower.

I like to run with a different stride,
So I can feel the sand inching out with the tide.

Hear the wind over distant lands,
Listen for nature's calls as I lay in the sand.

I miss you more than the stars during the day,
I miss you and I wish you never went away.
I miss you more than the moonlight.
I miss you more each day, each night.

I miss you so much, I am nothing but sad.
I miss you more than the life I had.
I miss you more than words can say,
I miss you more each night, each day.

The tree's dark limbs twist
in waves of cool, damp, mist,
and beckon you through the dark.

No clear path lies ahead,
guided by only the things you dread,
walk on, into the dark.

Only a silent call,
the sound of the fall,
to greet you in the dark.

See the dark of the night,
in all it's great light,
and cherish its mystery.

Friends can come in the strangest packages,
All torn up and scratched and sealed with red tape.
As his friend, my hugs are his bandages,
I’ll teach him to fly and sew his new cape.

Everyone must find their joy and their peace,
And now that we’ve met, we are more than fine.
T’is he who’s my joy and my missing piece.
May he never leave, this true friend of mine.

He will always have a place in my heart,
Let it be his home, always free from pain.
And even for long times when we’re apart,
I know that soon enough we’ll meet again.

He is there for me, all brave and tough.
I lean on him when I’m Not Strong Enough.
Almost a Shakespearean Sonnet. I have the main structure down but the word flow isn't quite what I'd like for an iambic pentameter. Anywho, I needed a sonnet for school and this is what I came up with. The topic means a lot to me right now so it'll be nice to get some credit for my expression of friendship.

I promise you, that I love you,
but I promised myself
this love wouldn't make me blind.
I have gone through great pain with you,
but I can't go forever.
Alas, have no fear, I will still be kind.

I will try to stand tall and see,
not judge before knowing,
and listen to everything you say.
Tell me everything that you want to be,
and I'll help you make it there.
But I can't leave other's on the way.

Even as my heart begins to swell,
from all the pressure building,
We'll keep marching onward and out.
I can almost see the light and see it well,
just a little farther yet.
We'll make it through without a doubt.

I promise you, that I love you,
but I promised myself
this love wouldn't make me blind.
I have gone through great pain with you,
but I can't go forever.
Alas, have no fear, I will still be kind.

You knoW I wear my heart on my sleeve,
but could you ever make it up to me?
For stealing it away, knowing It was my only vice,
and leaving me with a hole as cold and dark as ice.

But inside I want to forgive you,
Because the probLem isn't just what you do.
But sometimes I want to forget you.
Because the scars are stilL from what You do.

Can we just sit here in silent nOthing.
Let my pUlse slow to a stop.
From you I don't want anything,
You took my hEart then let it drop.

But inside I want to fogiVe you,
BEcause the problem isn't just what you do.
But sometimes I wish I had foRsaken you,
Because the scars are still from what you do.

Can we just lay here in the light,
Let my eyes adjust to the fire.
Your Soul is burning through my night,
though you are not my hEarts desirE.

So inside I want to forgive you,
because the problem isn't just what you do.
But sometimes I wish I could forget you,
because all these scars you see,
are what you did to me.
