My True Friend! Poem by Christian Eliab Ratnam

I see it in his eyes,
Yes I do!
Yet I don’t understand.
No! Not even the slightest clue.

Strange concern, rare with men,
So strange it rested within.
There in the depths of his soul,
Good nature breathing.

I am breathless,
What a surprise,
Humanity lost and found,
Celebrating depravity’s demise.

Seated beside me,
Gazing into my eyes,
My true friend,
My Christ!
