Top 10 Best Poems about True Friendship

Written for the one we hold dear
The epitome of friendship, oh so clear
Though distance separates, we adhere
Understanding, the greatest cheer.

You are the invaluable gift we cherish
This life bestowed, never to perish
To comfort, console when we anguish
And listen, share our heartfelt wish.

No need to ponder what lies outside
You delve into our soul, far and wide
Comprehending thoughts we hide
Unspoken, yet you comprehend with pride.

One who never leaves us behind
In sorrow or pain, solace we find
With you, our worries unwind
No longer do we dwell on what's unkind.

You know you're like a missing part
A soul half lost, from the start
You bring joy, sorrow departs
We blend in understanding, word by heart.

You quietly shield, carefree and true
No harm intended, by you
You offer a love so pure, so due
Cherished more than romantic woo!

We hold you dear, our truest bond
In our hearts, you'll forever respond!!!

Dong Anh Lieu

Everyone needs a true companion in life,
Adding flavor to the journey we strive,
Keeping us grounded when we feel lost,
Listening to every word, no matter the cost.

A true friend holds sincerity dear,
No envy, competition, or sneer,
Only sharing for the sake of our joy,
Thinking of us, their self they deploy.

We all need someone like this by our side,
To share both laughter and tears, open wide,
To wipe our tears when they start to fall,
To prevent loneliness from becoming our all.

A true companion, a beautiful soul,
A gentle lover who makes us feel whole,
A bit of sweetness, a touch of care,
Bringing us love beyond compare...!!!

We've lingered in fond remembrance, haven't we, my dear,
Sending our tender affections through each gaze so clear.
No need for vows or oaths, deceitful words we steer,
Feelings deep within our hearts, securely held near.

We've weathered many storms, seeking what we yearn,
Not the grandeur of noise and promises, our lesson to learn.
Already soaked with changes, nothing is truly stern,
Just the solace of sharing in every dusk we discern.

We're past the age of youthful folly, passionate embrace,
No longer trading ecstasy for each scar upon our grace.
Just being together, we find a tranquil space,
A gentle smile, serene after every tempest we face.

Can we call each other kindred spirits, I plea?
Can we clasp hands when the winds blow wild and free?
Some things needn't be illuminated for all to see,
Just lingering, unfinished, for fond memory...

Come back to me, the evening lights now gleam,
Whenever I falter, you'll be my esteem.
That's all, amidst life's vast and endless stream,
We'll always have a companion to share the dream...

Hoa Bất Tử

How many find a kindred spirit's light?
A fleeting meeting, cherished day and night.
Seeking them out becomes a daunting plight,
But destiny's path, in chance, takes flight!

Like a raindrop caught in the hand's tight grasp,
Holding onto a friend is a difficult clasp!
The bond of friendship, in memory, does rasp,
Etched deep in the heart, a fondness to outlast.

Meeting in the realm of verse and rhyme,
Finding a kindred spirit, a rhythm sublime.
Sharing tea, admiring the soul's paradigm,
Drunk on poetry, love's intoxicating chime!

The sound of strings, music's somber flight,
Sipping alone, lost in poetry's might.
Where to find the shared dream's guiding light?
Kindred spirits understand, what a delight!

If in the next life we meet again,
Will you still be my confidant?
Will you listen to my heartfelt stories,
Understanding and wishing each other happiness?
If in the next life, within the cycle of rebirth,
We two meet from childhood,
Will you still have those bright innocent eyes,
Forever by my side?
If in the next life we reunite,
Will you walk step by step with me,
Sharing life's joys and sorrows,
Together overcoming worldly trials?
If we meet again in the next life - it's possible!
I wish you'll always stand by me,
Wiping away my teardrops,
And providing a warm shoulder for me to lean on.
In the next life, let's not be strangers,
Quietly passing each other by,
Like this life - our deep friendship,
So poignant - a lifetime without meeting...!
Fate or heavenly debt has arranged
An incomplete destiny - forever distant...!

Meeting someone again after years apart,
When memories have faded with age.
Thoughts of foolishness, innocence,
But the heart still trembles remembering those times...
Having weathered many storms in life,
Many people come and go, becoming strangers...
Yet holding onto someone thought to be nothing,
In a corner, dear, to avoid collision...
Life looks long, yet short it may be...
Countless things impossible to attain.
Wanting to be with someone but quietly stepping away,
Being apart doesn't mean love is over...
Because life is so turbulent with too many storms,
Because two foolish people only know how to love but not how to keep,
Because a fragile first love is easy to break,
Or is it because unfinished happiness is hard to forget?
Meeting again doesn't mean reconnecting fate,
They have forgotten a love that wasn't meant to be.
Perhaps now they become two confidants,
Happier when everything has been arranged...

What are we in each other's world?
Just strangers, yet why such deep affection?
How many people meet, not easy to tell,
Or is it fate's debt that makes us silently yearn?

What are we in this hundred-year rendezvous?
A dream in a shared life's path,
Love filling each void
In a heart longing and waiting.

We see ourselves through verses,
Sharing soulful friendships,
With shared thoughts,
Telling each other life's tales.

In your world, there are falling raindrops,
In mine, there's a sky of dreams,
A fate amidst life's flow,
Hence meeting against the tide of stars.

What are we in each other's world?
A strange affection in life's enigma,
A nostalgia for a bygone era,
Ours in our own world.

We're just friends, you and I
No more than that, forever nigh!
Even when you're down, I feel the weight
But never alone, sorrow dissipates.
We've never fought, you and I
Never seen me shed a tear or sigh
On the stairs we meet, just a twinkle in our eye
Just laughter, for we're just friends, don't ask why.
You by my side, joy abounds
Unperturbed when you're with others found
And roses, my favorite, pink or white
You know well, why gift a garden delight?

Compiled

You and I, just friends in life's grand play
Time may pass, but our bond holds sway
No storms for us, no rainy days
Just fond memories as autumn winds sway

If you're down, I'll be by your side
A word or two, to be your guide
With a hearty laugh and a gentle chide
Stand tall, don't let sorrow abide

Between you and me, it's all we'll be
If the wind tousles your hair carelessly
I'll scold the breeze, where's it off to spree?
Then let your hands smooth it tenderly

You and me, nothing more to seek
But boundless friendship, no end to speak
If weary, a message, my phone will beep
But your burden, my shoulder can't keep

You know it well, why call my name
In dreams of love, it's just a game
I'm your friend, don't lose in that frame
If flowers are gifted, no roses to claim.

Thanks to you for standing by my side,
So I don't feel alone on life's ride.
A shoulder to cry on, when tears I hide,
Suddenly, worries and woes subside.

Thanks to you for being patient and still,
Silently wiping away each tear spill,
Letting me see life with a clearer thrill,
And your smile, so warm, does instill.

Thanks to you for these years of true presence,
Showing me sincerity's essence.
I wish to linger in your comforting essence,
Neither fading nor growing intense.

Though time swiftly passes, we know it's true,
I don't want beginnings or farewells to ensue.
You may not be there in all that I do,
But don't stay silent when I seek you.

Just silently be somewhere in my heart,
Don't call out only to depart.
Let's share honesty, never to depart,
With you by my side, I find warmth in part.

Not always something, alright?
