For My Beloved Friend Poem by Jan Valdez

*another acrostic..the first letters of each line; the first letter of the middle syllables of each line; and the last letters of each line make up the sentence: 'I will be with you forever'


Imparted to this pathWay is your own cradled grieF.

Whilst you hide the anger Inside your concrete egO,

I still see those uncried Tears locked in your mind’s cellaR

Longing that you stop withHolding the sorrow and hatE.

Lies run along this road - Your path with no point to reV.

But my friend, I will stay On your side and never leavE.

Even if this walk lasts Until we reach foreveR.
