In the journey of life
A lot of people jumped onto the train
Towards a destination
Called “Friendship”
Some found the journey
Tedious and uncomfortable
A journey wearisome and arduos
And jumped off very fast
Some stayed on
Yet
Midway through the journey they encountered bliss
And claimed it was enough.
And a little later boarded a better train
Some carried on
Where the seats were cushioned with ‘Mutual respect’ they said
And it made their journey more comfortable
Bestowing solace upon their travel
Some grew weary
And claimed the journey was demanding
Their steps turned wobbly
They bid their goodbyes, seeking paths unknown
Leaving behind memories, like seeds that are sown.
Only a few steadfast travelers waited for the terminus
Amidst the hustle and bustle
Weathering storms
Leaning on each other they forged ahead.
They stayed on the train
Through every twist and turn
Shared laughter and tears
As they traveled together
Venturing ahead
Supporting one another’s dreams
Towards this unpredictable destination
Called “Friendship of Life”.
The train rattled through valleys of doubt
Climbed mountains of challenges
But for the trusted traveller-camaraderie
The journey continued.
Suddenly one night
The clickety-clack sound on the tracks
Raised alarm
The speed was high
And the travelers thought they will get thrown off the tracks
Holding on to a precious few hands
When the train started rattling on the track
They prayed
Knowing they are in it together
No matter what
Their grip was strong with connection
With a profound and unwavering bond established.
Through twists and turns
The camaraderie unfurled
As the train chugged on.
Hearts intertwined
In moments of vulnerability
They remained in faith
Through the highs and lows
They weathered the ride.
The journey continues
Intertwined with those
Who could not forsake the bond
Those who chose to endure until the very end.
Yes
The journey continues
Bound forevermore
For they steadfast and true, held the hands tight
Choosing resilience
Braving every plight
Till the very last destination they reach
Together they journey
As eternal friends
