Yet another poem dedicated to my best friend Tamil, who is also a family friend. Here goes the content:
It is you who told me
That, when it comes to romance
Things may not always end well
However, true friendship never dies
We met as colleagues
More than nine years ago
Colleagues soon became friends
And as of today, you are not just a friend
But also a family member
I have helped you
More times than I can count
You have also helped me
In many a crisis situation
Of course, we’ve also fought
However, as you say
This is part and parcel of friendship
And I want to let you know
That I will always be there for you
Also, I will never fail to consult you
Before making difficult decisions
If you are ever upset with me
I know that it is because you care so deeply about me
Not many women maintain a strong friendship with men after marriage
But you are a notable exception
Please remain the way you are
I will end on this note
Our relationship is proof
That true friendship never dies
