#friendship poems on Hello Poetry

like a frog springs atop a lily pad,
her enthusiastic essence was as scad.
like an infant sprawls into a deep sleep,
her appearance was an embodiment of babysheep.

like a coordinated kitchen fork blends with the spoon
we both accumulated as the exquisite winter's moon.

on a decadent day,when we will reunite,
she would still guffaw at my scrappy jokes
the void will transform into light
when your gaiety will crash the plight.

The year I turned 40..

The year I turned 40, I understood-
No love is greater than the love of God and your parents.

The year I turned 40, I learned-
A friendship of 20 years can vanish in a moment.

The year I turned 40, I realized-
A career isn't everything; it can be lost in the blink of an eye.

The year I turned 40, I saw-
The ones you trust most can be the ones who break your heart.

The year I turned 40, I knew-
Family is life's truest anchor, the only constant in a changing world.

The year I turned 40, I reflected-
On the time and money wasted on people who were never meant to stay.

The year I turned 40, I embraced-
The comfort is pajamas over the illusion of a party dress.

Yet in that year, I also discovered-
That some people remain, no matter where life takes you.
They do not care for status, wealth or circumstance-
They care for YOU, and they are the ones to treasure.

The year I turned 40...

Turning 40 wasn't just about reaching a milestone - it was reckoning. The lessons came fast and sharp: friendships aren't always forever, careers can vanish, and trust is fragile. But amid the heartbreak and realizations, I found clarity - family is everything, true friendships withstand time, and life is best lived in comfort. The poem is a reflection on love, loss, and the quiet beauty of understanding who truly matters.

Today's Generation

I could only keep my full omerta
when that one and only friend of mine
turned away and
lay his slender body
on the chaise longue

Those doe eyes now wide closed
as the ascot came loose

And his voice croaked
in a dull monotone:
“It's not my desire to cast Love aside, like Alberich and Wotan did
—as others do as well.

I was forced to do it all,
before Love could've launched, Its long-schemed
most arcane betrayal, which had been planned
in minute details, since the day
we were born.”

Care And Happiness

You came as a ray of light,
Made my life cheerful and bright,
Showering your affection over me
So that my face was full of glee.
Taking away my complete loneliness
And giving me back all the happiness
With a Midas touch of your care
To keep me away from despair.
I'll never leave you midway,
And tales of our bond people will say.

I wrote this poem to tell my best friend that her support and care during a period of loneliness and despair has helped me to regain happiness. though we are apart this summer, i look forward to seeing her soon and hanging out more.

To My Lovely Cutiesss

A book written anew,
With wholesome chapters in a few.
Laughters of joy and fun,
Memories in the making are spun.

Roots built once now longer than ever,
A special bond that is meant to stay forever.
Old conversations late at night,
Roasting if my "type" was right.

In the garden we sit at dawn,
Our chaotic energy made people drawn.
Goofy pictures made you smile,
Bad pictures collected made it worthwhile.

Advice shared that was barely followed,
Made mistakes through the time we borrowed.
Places we planned to go,
Still ended up in markets you know.

Years and years passed by,
This feeling is not a goodbye.
All those fights we had in the past,
Toxic or not we made it last.

Calls we had secretly in our room,
Sometimes caught by our parents, our fate was doomed.
Vms sent cause we had lot to say,
Old times, we went out to play.

Survived through it all together,
Good or bad, we stayed tethered.
A vent or a funny reel sent,
Stole my eraser but it was lent.

School was a mess, a chaotic distress,
But with y’all, the burden felt a little less.
Chasing around on the open ground,
Trying not to get smacked as we ran around.

Blanket forts felt like home,
Meanings of words googled on chrome.
My days were best with your presence,
Nothing will ever make me forget your ever lasting essence.

I love you a lot my lovely cutiessss <333
Always stay yourself ~xoxo BBFFFL

Adulthood

I am missing something inside me.
Because I miss those days
When we jumped into the river
Without our parents knowing.

We lied, we ate, we shared—
Our feelings fell
Like raindrops, all together.

But now, the time has changed.
The we is slowly turning into I.
Like rain with no window to fall on,
Is this what adulthood feels like?

Heart Sister

When I met my husband,
he brought me you.

Double dates
turned into
heart-to-hearts—
you became my friend.

Wedding bells rang.
We got married.
A new life began.
A friendship now
engraved in gold,
'till death do us part.

You hold me when I cry,
you hold me when I laugh—
we are
unblooded sisters.

I look at cradles,
and you hold my hand.
The years go by.

I blow out the candles—thirty.
Ten years
gone in a flash.

But I don’t look at cradles anymore.
There are tears in your eyes
as you ask why.

You see my eyes drift to him—
just a second,
but you don’t miss it.

You hold my hand,
telling me,
The way you’ve been moving
has always been him.

Don’t lose yourself.

And it hurts me,
because if anyone would know,
it would be you—
my heart-sister.

Brought to me
by a man
whose loyalty was never mine.

And still—
you were the gift he gave me
without meaning to.

Not his to keep,
but mine
in every way that matters.

kortu valentine Jun 22

summer solstice.

i tidied the corners,
stories simmered in the chilli,
scattered petals on the grass —
rose-red, next to a single lily.

i’d chosen the music with care,
but laughter co-wrote the score,
each chorus pulling us closer
to something warmer than before.

we bathed in rain, clouds, and sun,
each one carrying a moment,
where secrets come undone,
and quiet truths are spoken.

the fairy lights lit up,
as the world flipped slowly —
a circle of soft goodbyes
turning intimate into holy.

as the solstice faded,
and it struck twelve once more,
a day like this feels sacred,
as the season shifts the shore.

this night won't conclude us,
though the dusk will surely dim.
we are only at the beginning,
on the edge where stories swim.

this one is about a night that didn't want to end, and a season that quietly turned while we weren't watching.
