a friendship poem

Me as a poet....trust me...I wrote this poem in the sixth semester of my college... the inspiration for penning this down was the feeling of departure from the college as well my close friend.

I came to college with lots of hope
From my parents,sister and myself
And where do I stand
Amongst the ruins of my own life

I dreamed big and wanted to standout
From the normal crowds around
But i find myself lost,
with even my identity at stake.

When i became desperate
and lost all my hope
I met you,and...
suddenly I was in a new world

Your friendship, your love,
was enough for me to thrive
Your mere presence,
changed my life foever

And I felt, at least I
have a nice friendship to remember
The world may give different meanings
But ours will be true friendship to the core

When you talk to me in class,
my heart skips a beat
not because of the love for you,
But because of the fear of society

But when i am all alone,
I think about you the most
I would never get tired,
talking to you all day long

But now i feel insecure
A year from now our class will end
And we will have to part into
our own world,where we may be total strangers.
