Poetry is my friend
Making me find expression
Even in deep depression
Poetry is my friend
Allowing me to pen
Elegant lines on my feelings
Poetry is my friend
Making me to learn
More words of vocabulary
For the purpose of writing poems
Inspired by various topics
Poetry is my friend
Removing my sad , miserable state
Without any drugs or drinks
I am grateful to the Almighty God
For such a precious gift
I wish to God that my thirst for knowledge
and writing poems remains forever
Until the last breath of my existence.
