PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I needed a listening ear.

I just needed a friend

and you have been there.



I needed someone upon whom I could depend

to yell, “Foul,” when I messed up;

I just needed a friend.



I was searching to develop

real trust in a friend who would be willing

to yell, “Foul,” when I messed up.



Needing a friend to be encouraging,

as I attemped something new.  I needed

real trust in a friend who would be willing



to try to understand the heated

argument going on inside of me,

as I attemped something new.  I needed



you just to be there.

I needed a listening ear

for the argument going on inside of me,

and you have been there.
