I Need A Friend Poem by Ranil Gunawardena

I Need A Friend



I need a friend to teach me to listen to myself
I need a friend to teach me not to lean on
I need a friend to teach me that there is no use of crying
I need a friend to teach me that there is no end to a sigh
I need a friend to teach me to let go of all... before all is over - before I die
If not who can say, we all would not meet... as ghosts: -) ...

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This is in reply to 'To My Friends' - Poem by Dilantha Gunawardana

I needed a friend to listen
I needed a friend to lean on
I needed a friend to cry
I needed a friend to sigh
And when all is over (if ever)
I will be too dead
To even realize you were there
All along
As ghosts
