Black Poetry : Ballad to a Friend - From the Lighthouse Archives

Sitting alone wondering if someone cares
All alone into the starry night you stare
Things were different a few years ago
You knew where you stood and which direction to go
But those whom you have loved more than life
Has become the motivator of your pain and strife
And so you sit here wondering what’s next
Your world is now confused, your simple life has become perplexed
Yet thru it all you have remained strong
You’re all grown up now, you no longer sing that sad song
For you know there is someone out there
To whom you can share your cares
A friend in the Night
Who resides in the House of Light
Though he has confessed to you certain things
He respects you, never will disrespect you you for you are truly a queen
Yet he is there to hold your hand when you are sad
To keep you together when you want to be bad
To sing to you a song to quiet your tears
And when you need it a kiss to chase away your fears
Desires you he do but to a certain extent
And so through his poetry he allows his passion to vent
You are still desirable even though you may think otherwise
And he shall steer away the wolves that may come in disguise
Yet he shall stand back when he recognizes true love
For his primary concern is his friend who is also a gentle dove
And in knowing this, rest, put your mind at ease, and let your worries come to an end
For the Bishop sends his undying love to she he calls a friend.
