Seeking A Friend

Posted in: Poetry. Tagged: aging, love. 2 Comments

I seek nothing more in this life

Except to have a true friend

To walk by my side.

Great lovers I’ve had and have lost

Each expecting something in return

Love came with a cost.

There was a husband I had for awhile

An adult reality

Once dreamt by a child.

But regrets are for those yet to learn

That life’s rewards are not given

They must be earned.

Though now the hour is rather late

I’m almost halfway to tomorrow

But still I’ll patiently wait.

For I know a man who earnestly seeks

A true friend to walk by his side:

Come soon the day when we eventually meet

And true love will be realised.
