FRIENDS

In a few days,
College days will end;
And it made me ask,
Did it actually help me in my ascend?

And instantly my heart responded-
It gave me a gigantic list of people that I met,
Those with whom I sat, and
Who do not have a match.

Many remained just acquaintances,
A few became Friends;
The former I fare thee well,
The latter- will stay- even after college days will end.

A lot I learned from you,
A lot I gained through you company;
I now stand confidently on the world stage,
Because at the right time- you always accompanied.

Whenever I felt low,
You made me realise how hard my peers strive;
And that if I were to slow down,
The world was waiting to strike out my very life.

You also showed me,
How people can become indifferent;
How people can become cold,
Wasn’t that a part of your elaborate plan, magnificent.

Yet you were not so bad
I assume it was a part you played, and played it amazingly well;
Only to teach me the virtue of forgiveness
Because spewing hatred, now definitely ain’t me- I can tell.

You helped me climb the slope,
You taught me to excel in life’s tests;
You gifted me the power of hope,
Thankyou Dear Friends, You always brought out my best!
