Another friendship

Going down into the darkness of the soul
where you must perish in the jungles of unconscious mysteries,
everything is darkness and without relief,
and you get muddled up in hopelessly entangling complications
of emotions like a web of feelings of remorse and guilt,
and there is nothing that can save you from this well
in which you are cast down unknown of all and all alone,
and only one thing can still save you:
some miraculous relationship of lasting friendship,
some warm heart that understands your own,
and it is always there, quite ready and alert to save you
by just being there and listening and sharing your affection.
All you have to do is just to find that waiting friend.
