Life is long... It’s all our own; but when we are with friends, ‘estranged’ will be a word never to be heard. Time is the number of moments we find, and it fills our lives with joy and happiness. But when we part from friends, time will no longer seem what it used to be. We never know what the future has in store, yet the thoughts of friendship and the bonds we share will bring us much needed solace. They say time heals; nevertheless the moment of estrangement will be hard to heal.
The shadows of life will grow longer
Some days will be happy, some sad,
Yet the fiendship you’ve made will grow stronger
As you think of the good times you’ve had.
A sincere friend is a precious possession,
Whose value increases with years;
Suffering may come to assail you...
Empathetic friends can allay all of your fears.
The days that are gone will leave memories,
And memories are precious to keep;
They bring solace to life like pleasant melodies
That charm you and lull you to sleep.
Our days gather speed in their passing
With multiplied ills that attend...
Yet, you’ll weather safely each hurdle
When you feel the embrace of a loyal friend.

Very sweet indeed.
I hope everything's fine at your end. My apologies for dropping in after so long.
Take care.
It's very apparent from this poem that you're very close to your friends. Well written, really conveyed your emotions well.
wow :)

Beautifully written.
True fiendship indeed is beautiful. :)
warmth and sweetness gushing out ;)
what a beautiful way of expressing the value of a loyal friend.. :)
Your facebook tag said that you don't believe in best friends. Just out of curiosity..why exactly?
Sorry for the intrusive manner of question :)
This must be the simplest of your poems for the simple reason that I dint have to consult the dictionary..
Loved the feelings attached to those lines..
and good to see you back:D
Nice thoughts Kartz..

Kartz that was BEAUTIFUL! It just goes to show how much u CARE abt ur friends.
I agree..Time heals, but the moment of Estrangement is hard to deal...well-said there. Im going thru it now but I hv to go thru it all to KNOW wuts on the other side. if u know wut I mean. Its very difficult right now for me, but I know I'll be bak in the arms my friends with a HIGHER love...with a higher purpose.
So will u wait for me? :)

Thanks a ton bro'... Well, check my reply to Praveen. :) You'll know why I wanted you to read this...
Glad you could relate to it. 'Cos, well... I do too. Hence those two lines you just referred to!
Take care.
ha ha ha .. lol
:)
I somehow believe simplicity leaves a greater impact ..
even with my new ones am tryin to accommodate some big words .. they do fit in .. but when i read them they dont satisfy me ... i mean the flow of a person who does nt understand the word would be affected .. and hence the impact lost ..
Hmmm... Yeah, true.
Lets see. Hope I continue refraining from bombast-ism (as was described by an anonymous fellow not too long ago. Huh! :P to him/her/it) though it will be tough... :)
you'd by now know how much it touches me...odes to old friends :) ...its just too sweet.. nd wit all their sweetness hav u explained. today or ystrday..i dnt remember..i came to ur site nd ths post was nt visible..the heading was thr..bt nthing else
##verbivore
Thank you ma'am... :)
a beautiful and a sweet tribute to friendship.. impressive!
Frankly speaking, I didnt expect such a post from you! Why you of all, about the virtues of friendship? LOL
It was a nice read, though I could relate more to the estrangement part! Hmm.
##Lena
Danke!
##rampantheart
** Why you of all, about the virtues of friendship? LOL

I agree :-)
Friends are everything.
