I've found something really sweet...both about Friends and Lovers... As a Romantic, these 4 poems really hit bullseyes in my heart!

When I first read the 'Friends' poems, my first thought was that they were really sweet and thoughtful. And I thought, "Exactly! This is how friends should be!"

Then i went to reading another 'Friend' poem, which turned out to be a 'Lovers' poem. My thought drifted off to somewhere...The poem about 'Lovers' is truly romantic and it hit home for me. This shows that lovers are friends as well, they compliment each other on strengths and weaknesses! :)

Let me share with you the poems I've come across... :) Happy reading! Let these poems touch your heart as much they touched mine:

~FRIENDS~
We all need someone
To talk to in our life,
A friend to whom we run
In Times of stress or strife

A friend who's always there
Throughout the years,
A friend we know will care
And take away our fears.

A friend who's always near,
Waiting for our call,
To wipe away our tears,
And lift us when we fall.

A loving friend indeed,
On whom we can depend
To fulfill our every need -
Thank you, precious friend.

If I could catch a rainbow,
I would do it just for you.
And share with you its beauty,
On the days you're feeling blue.

If I could build a mountain,
You could call your very own.
A place to find serenity,
A place to be alone.

If I could take your trouble,
I would toss them to the sea.
But all these things I'm finding,
Are impossible for me,

I cannot build a mountain,
Or catch a rainbow fair.
But let me be what I know best,
A friend who is always there.

~LOVERS~
There are gifts of many treasures
For both the young and old,
From the tiniest little trinkets
To great boxes filled with gold.

But, put them all together
And they could not stand in lieu,
Of the greatest gift of all
The gift of knowing you.

When your times are filled with troubles
Sadness, grief, or even doubt,
When all those things you planned on
Just aren't turning out.

Just turn and look behind you
From the place at which you stand,
And reach out for my hand.
And look for me through the shadows

I will lift from you your burden
And cry for you your tears,
Bear the pain of all your sorrow
Though it may be for a thousand years.

For in the end I would be happy
To have helped you start anew,
It's a small price to pay
For the gift of knowing you.

When you're not here to share my days and nights,
My life is so incomplete.
For you are my heart, my soul,
The 'oneness' that I had known to seek.

Without you I merely exist from day to day,
With you I know that I will find.
All that I've been searching for,
My completeness, my eternal piece of mind.

You are the keeper of my dreams,
The man who holds my heart in his hands.
The one I want to spend my life with,
The one with whom I will stand.

Stand beside through thick and thin,
Through all that life would throw our way.
Knowing that this special love we share,
Will guide us, each and every day.

This journey was started long ago,
Before this time and place.
The journey of completeness,
As two hearts and souls embrace.

Forever is what I want with you,
For the search is at an end.
Our hearts have found each other,
As lovers, as soul-mates, as friends.
