POEM STARTER

Write a poem about seeing the face of someone you love.

Whether romantic, platonic, or familial love, use emotive language to convery the feeling you get when you see this person.

What friendship is

I see you

And I realize

What friendship was meant to be


Its not transactional

Its unconditional


You love my highs and my lows

Just as I love yours


You listen to every word

As if you are starving for more


You look at me like I am stars myself

But in you I see the universe

Are we eachothers galaxy?


You gift me things

Which I reciprocate

But one is never the stop


You ask me what I want to do

I don’t have to ask first


You tell me I look cute

Even when i am a mess


You help me with the little things

My body can not handle


You offer up so much

Which I enjoy a bunch


I now realize what friendship is supposed to be


It’s isn’t one sided

Its more of a square

All the sides touching

Perfectly equal

So we each give and take

Our two sides of the story


It isn’t fake

You tell me its ok

Don’t make me push through

When Things get too hard

You listen to my pains, my aches

And offer up remedies

Instead of walking away


It isn’t transactional

You don’t expect to be repaid

And neither do I

We give and take

But not too much

And if we do

We talk it out


You helped me realize

What friendship is

And for that,

I say thank you

My friend
