Closer to Hell...

Morning light burning my eyes
Waking up to candy wrappers and McDonald’s French fries
Stayed up too late watching “The Andy Griffith Show”
I shouldn’t really be so irresponsible I know

But being with you I feel so free
It’s like the blindfolds gone and I can finally see
You make even simple things feel exiting
Your smile is always so inviting!

I see you sleeping next to me on the couch
You look so uncomfortable and slouched
Yet you stayed with me through the night
Helping me forget my tears and fright

Just being my friend but I think it’s something more
Popcorn and jellybeans cover the floor
I laugh at you as you wake up and whine
Saying that I get the floor next time

Stepping over games and garbage too
My funny face angel that is you
Thank you for being here when I needed someone the most
And all you ask in return is some eggs and French toast


~Thanks to a friend who got me through a painful night~
(May you look half as attractive as I do in the mornings!)

This is a very fine thank you write, Kira.
Your friend will no doubt get a laugh at the last line. Now go pick up all that popcorn and those jellybeans. LOL

Hello, Kira! As they say, "A friend in need is a friend in deed." ~ and indeed, your friend proved to be a friend!

Might I also add, that to have a friend, one must be a friend! It appears that you are worthy of having such a friendship!

~ May your troubled times soon pass and your path in life be lit with glorious sunshine!

Your poem beautifully illustrates what friendship is all about.

Loving Light and a great big hug,
Earth Angel
