A Best Friend

A best friend...is like...
Ice cold water
On a hot summer day
A tape recorder that will listen
As long as you provide the tapes
A security blanket
To wrap around you when you're scared
A punching bag
That will take every blow
(Not that you would actually hit them)
A sound proof room
That will hear your cries and never tell
This is what a real best friend is like
And so much more
That you'd run out of paper
If you had to write it all down.

    I love your similes in this poem...Delightful read! Do keep penning!

  • you kinda broke the feel of the poem by adding the (not that you would punch them) you may want to take that out because it really ruins the feel you had going on it was really good up to that but i lost the good feeling. but you brought it back up at the end
    thanks for entering

    Very nice description of best friendship. The pink is a bit of a punch. For my poor eyes it a bit too bright . Pink works just not this shade Consider putting

    Not that you would actually hit them in ( ) parentheses
    since it doesn't fit the structure of the poem.

    Great job all together

    Keep writing!!
