My Best Friends

Welcome back my friend Sorrow

how I’ve missed the way you hug my body tightly and never let go.

Pleasure to see you Worry

my mind has felt empty without your constant conversation.

So glad you’re back, Pain

I have felt confused without your consistent reminders.

And greetings to you Sadness

it’s been lonely without your ubiquitous shadow.

I am so lucky to have you, my best friends,

I can always count on you to return

unlike my old friend Hope

who always leaves when I need her most.
