I Need A Friend

I need A friend,
Are you out there?
I need a friend today.
I need a friend,
To fight this pain,
And take these tears away.

I need a friend,
I've really tried,
To hold my head up high.
I need a friend,
That I can hold,
As I sit and cry.

I need a friend,
To share the pain,
I can no longer bear.
I need a friend,
For just a while,
Tell me…are you there?

If you are, then tell me please,
Help me ease my pain.
Help me find the sunshine,
Help me leave the rain.

I need a friend,
I need your hugs,
I'm no longer strong.
I need a friend,
To see me through,
I've waited for so long.

If you are out there somewhere,
Please help me today.
Please don't just reject me,
Don't turn me away.

I need a friend,
I need your love,
So this message I will send
Is there anybody out there?
Hello….I need a friend.

This poem brought back alot of painful memories for me.  Very well expressed on ur part.  A friend is always out there.  Just sometimes they are also frightened too.  Never give up tho.

If you want a friend i am always here

E-mail me if it gets to much

always Walter

  Did you write the Book of Love
And do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so
Do you believe in rock 'n roll
Can music save your mortal soul
And can you teach me how to dance real slow

This is a wonderful poem Darla and if you hold on you'll find a friend. A real friend...they are so rare...but well worth the wait. Keep your eyes open...they're not too easy to find...especially with your head down. Once again, beautiful poem Darla and welcome to Dark Passions.

                Yours truly,
                   Angel

Darla, welcome to passions.  We in the dark can relate to the pain you are feeling.  True friends are rare and precious like gems.  One is there for you.  Feel free to e-mail anytime you need to talk.  Great poem.

Wonderful poem. This brought back a time in my life when I felt so desperately alone and helpless and I thought noone would help me out. no matter how bad it gets, always keep the faith in your fellow man to reach a hand down to pull you out of the pitfalls life sets.

Welcome, welcome, welcome, wonderful poet, darla.  This poem spoke to me like few poems can.  Friends are something everyone needs and sometimes you find the best ones in the strangest places.  Be strong and keep writing.

  Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence.

Great Poem

Stirs many emotions and memories I have had.  Only time will tell, be strong. A friend will be introduced soon.
