I was about to break down
when a friend came in.
she told me stories of wisdom,
inspite of my grin.
inspite of everything,
same insecurities I've fell on,
adviced and reminded me,
not to apprehend expectations.
She gave and lifted,
when I was deep down.
with her easy approach,
had released myself in frown.
Her knowledge base foundation,
she earned by timed waiting.
shared and inspired,
even wihout a smoke and wine.
She sailed my boat,
without an equal exchange.
lend an even-honest ear,
unlocked my heart in cage,
from these black biles,
that turns off the tide.
mere worries and immaturities,
are thrown and kept aside.
Now, how very lucky I am,
to have this heaven sent.
A rare, and precious jewel,
A real gem of a Friend.
