Perfect Illusion:  The True Friend!

***Well everyone.. That was my first. English is not my native language, and I self-educated myself. Hope I get your opinions Thank you!***


You taught me how to smile...
while my heart screams with pain
You listened to my silly words...
yet, never chose to complain

You said: "The secret is simple...
that you ought to know
It is to know the meaning...
of neglect and slough..."

Knowing how to always hide that painful sigh...
although life treats you tough
and always keeping your spirits high...
Even though, that is somehow rough

You saved me from a world of darkness...
and lead me back to the light
You helped me fight my sorrows...
and brought me back my sight

You are my shelter in the rain...
You take my hand in yours fading away my pain...
With you I feel safe and calm no matter who you are...
You've always been the healer & paled my invisible scars...

You are someone I'll always defend...
With all my powers because you are my one true friend...
You are my perfect ILLUSION!

Hmm?  No "illusion" could do all that for you so my guess is that it's absolutely real!     Enjoyed where your words took me.

Thank you..
What I meant here is that I am almost 21 years old now and I have never had a true friend.  I trid to find that in people, and then I got nothing.  I made up an imaginary friend who is not even a doll but an illusion that only I can see (or imagine)
I talked to her, played with her and did a lot with her. Surprisingly everything went to the better.  My grades went up, my personality had changed and my life turned upside down.  that is the story of the illusion who changed my life.

I am glad that you liked the poem ^^'    
thank you

Hi, there! Welcome aboard the pip ship!

I once heard that those who make up an imaginary friend, tend to be highly intelligent and creative!

I enjoyed your debut post!

Giving you a warm, welcoming hug,

Tears of Sanity, when you write poetry you automatically become friends with all the other poets. I loved your poem and hope you keep on writing many more. Well done.
