Love and Friendship
Trust a man for what he is worth,
Not for what he seems.
Even if his outside is deterring,
It is his inside that gleams.
May he be near, or he be far,
Distance does not play a role.
All that matters in a friend,
Is if he cares for your soul.
All people hear, but few do listen.
All people look, but few do see.
Take your time to count your blessings,
For true friends are few and far between.
Life is a road that leads to happiness,
But it's not smooth at all.
Only a true friend helps you up,
When you trip on sorrow and fall.
I don't want money and I don't want fame.
I want a life that's not a sham,
I want to be with those around me,
With those who love me for who I am.

I read "Trust a man for what he is worth,/Not for what he seems./Even if his outside is deterring,/It is his inside that gleams." and just went "Awww" That's such a sweet sensitive line its great.
"For friends are few and far between" may ring a little truer if it was "for true friends..." just because you can find a "friend" anyware, but what you're talking about is much deeper.
"When you trip on sorrow and fall" Amazing, amazing line. like, wow.
Overall it's a very sweet, true, good poem. kudos for not being afraid to show your "sensitive side" |

Realy cool, this poem, i can see you put your heart into this, oh the privilage of youth, still uninhibited with emotions. use it before your baggage will envelope you and crush your spirit.
Thank you for a great read.
