Tried and True

All that traps you will fall away.

All that defines you is here to stay.

Inhale

exhale

there’s more to it then just the

breath you breathe.

Character flaws they say,

Idiosyncrasies make us special

they never leave.

 

People come and go in a life span,

and all that matters

are the best ones you can count

on one hand.

 

Tried and true,

tragedy and tribulation,

they will stand by you no matter

what you do.

 

Through all kinds of information

the grief or pain that began,

a true friend by far

is the hardest to find.

Connections run deep

in sink with your mind.

"a true friend by far is the hardest to find"—I like this phrase and the wisdom behind this write. Bravo!

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.

Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
