A Faithful Friend

Green as the greenest valley could be

Rewards of your sweat and toil a plenty

Discontent if you are amidst bounty

While reminiscing all seems unworthy.

Friendly as the friendliest person could be

Poured your heart out for their intimacy

Disappointed if you are amongst family

A broken heart is thy reward repeatedly.

Bleak as the bleakest desert could be

Void of everything you considered worthy

Futile if you are pursuing myopically

Something that does not satisfy thee.

Faithful than a faithful friend could be

True to His promises in uncertainty

Closer than a closest relation could be

Is thy Redeemer Jesus ultimately.

Inane as the life pursuits could be

When everything is meaningless and empty

With all thy heart seek Him reverently

Till you see Him face to face in eternity.
