A Best Friend's Love

Preza wiped the sweat from her head as she finished her shift. She was feeling better after the doctor and had finally gotten a small break in the day. As she sat down on the sofa, she grinned as she wrote down a poem that she had on her heart. As the poem slowly came to life from the pen and page, she felt warm arms wrap around her. She turned with a grin, knowing who it was.

"What are you writing, love?" A deep voice cooed.

"It's a poem, Jocu. It's about what I have experienced. Especially since I have had a few friends visit since…," she said gently.

"Since…that event…," Jocu said helpfully.

"Yeah," she said, trying to hold back a small tear.

"You have been very strong." Jocu said, now holding her closer.

"Thanks, Jocu. Things aren't always easy, but that's why I try to write things to cheer people up and keep light in the world." Preza smiled gently.

"Can I hear it?" He asked, now glancing over her shoulder.

"Of course, Jocu," she said, now nuzzling his cheek and making him purr in pleasure. She cleared her throat a bit and began.

"A best friend's love, as we know, is special to the heart

A best friend's love is true and it can never be torn apart.

A best friend is not perfect, but no one on Earth is.

What matters is they care for you,

Through the pain and the bliss.

Trials may come and trials may go, but true friends always care

They hold your hand through hurt and pain

And bear what you bear.

But now is not the time to cry

Don't let struggles get you down.

You are still alive with life to live

So smile, please don't frown.

Be full of joy and life

For there is much to celebrate.

Don't look at the dark and gloom around

Fight the agony and the hate.

Let your true friends be your guide

And help you through your life

A best friend won't run when rain comes

Nor the storm or the strife.

And now the final part of this poem I give to you

A best friend is a wonderful jewel

Whom God gives to you."

At the end, Preza smiled at him and he did nothing but purr into her neck and hug her tightly.

"Masterpiece, my love. Simply a masterpiece," he said softly, as she turned and hugged him just as tightly.


guestsurprise's words: Note to everyone: We all know that life and struggles are just a part of this world, but what matters is to not let them get you down. There will always be something that tries to steal your joy and happiness, but do not let it.

I dedicate this special poem to the best friends that I know and the best friends of the entire world. For best friends are a gift from God and are a blessing from above.

Thank you for posting, Goldie!
