A Poem for a special friend in need

When things aren't going right,
where what you lack is light.
When things seem horribly wrong,
where life seems so long...
At times we do things the wrong way,
and we think everything is okay.
At times we wished for hope,
life's simply too difficult to cope.
Once or twice we wish for peace,
but the pain and suffering just won't cease.
Our minds tells us things we refuse to hear,
and then we drown ourselves with alcohol and beer.
What is the meaning of life you may ask,
what exactly is my righteous task.
As time go,
we will eventually know.
But for now one needs the rest,
and do what we do best.
To forget the torture in our hearts,
And not to bet your life with a game of cards.
Take care my friend,
if I can smile, you also can.
It's all in the mind,
there's no such thing as a different kind.
Whatever that's tormenting you,
just to let you know I'll always be there for you.
