Friend

It's a Friday afternoon (sort of), and I have so much I should be doing, but instead I'm blogging.  When I tell people that I live on the internet, they think I'm kidding.  I'm not.

But I *like* blogging.  I actually just realized that I genuinely enjoy it.  This is kind of blowing to my mind, I never really thought of myself as a blogger, but hey, hopefully my enjoyment will actually give me the motivation needed to continue this until people start actually reading it. XD

Happy Friday ya'll, have a poem!  It's homemade!

Friend

There used to be a man (Although he really was a boy),
who had a sanctuary and it was his pride and joy.
He knew to visit this place whenever he fell in strife,
and told his sanctuary, "Friend, I love you more than life."

Through times of good and times of ill, he never felt alone.
His place would vanquish all concerns and warm him to the bone.
But a day came when the life that they'd always shared was through.
He said to it amidst tears, "Friend, I don't know what I'll do."

Somehow he managed on his own, things changed, years went and came,
until the day that he returned to find his place the same.
It offered him protection as it always had before.
He smiled and said, "Friend, you're where I'll stay forevermore."

There used to be a boy (I guess he could have been a man),
who never had a secret or a talent or a plan.
He never did find riches, renown, power, or a wife.

He found a sanctuary though, and loved it more than life.
