My Favorite Poem

When you feel sad and betrayed
Who can you count on every single day?
When you feel lost and alone
Who will be there for you in every way?
When you've made mistakes and bad decisions
Who can you count on to tell you you're wrong?
When you feel you can't go on
Who will be there with a feel-better song?
Look into your heart and you will find
That person you can trust is not far away.
Look deep into yourself, don't give up,
For if you do, it's yourself you'll betray.
When you're looking for answers
To all your questions and dreams,
There is one person you can count on,
It's impossible, I know, it seems.
But take a few moments to look deeper inside.
Look into your heart and there you will see.
You'll be surprised when you find out
That you've been looking at ME.

The reason why I have chosen this poem is because it touches the inner most feelings of my heart. One thing that is needed to everyone is one friend and without a friend to be there for you, it becomes hard to bear the fact that you think as if you are alone. There is always one person who is there and will be there through the hardest times in your life. He/she will help you and guide you through a place that you will appreciate later on in life and stop and think to yourself and laugh about them.
Friends are there for you and you must appreciate the fact that they are there for you. It is not always fun and laughter that comes with friendship, but also sorrow and tears that would often get you guys even closer. Never leave a friend feeling left behind, for it will also become known to yourself that you have been torn apart by little reasons in a short matter of time. Even after you have gone through all those times of hardship in order to get so far, it is a simple mistake that leads and builds up onto a bigger mistake if you do not forgive and be forgiven.
