A poem from a friend

(untitled)

Know these truths.
Hang them in the hallowed halls of your mighty heart.

No one walks alone.
Though company may be denied,
And your way deserted and dark.
Persons of noble feelings always have you
In their mind’s eye.

Burdens are never shouldered by only one.
Though you be taxed,
Seemingly beyond your capacity.
Persons of noble feelings always have you
In their mind’s eye.

Trials are rally points for those that Love.
Though you be judged by fire,
And you can not come out unscathed.
Persons of noble feelings always have you
In their mind’s eye.Pain is fleeting.

Though you be pierced,
Through body and Soul.
Persons of noble feelings always have you
In their mind’s eye.

It takes many pieces to make a whole.
Though you only cast one shadow,
You are made up of all you have shone upon.
Persons of noble feelings always have you
In their mind’s eye.

Riches are not counted in coins.
Though rarer than any gemstone,
Friends of the heart are many for you.
Persons of noble feelings always have you
In their mind’s eye.

All you ever have to do is ask.
No request has ever been so great,
That a friend could not even attempt.
Persons of noble feelings always have you
In their mind’s eye.
