Fragile were my life's canoes,
Restless were my will's torments.
It was life at hell for me..and I stood there gazing at nothingness.
..(But)
Ever since I met you O' dear pal,
Neither sorrows nor gloom did I meet.
Darkness was just a mirage, and
Strength was the shadow that followed me.
..(As)
Humanity..is for humans,
Integrity..for the immaculate,
Perpetuity is for paeans;
...Friendship..is for the soul in me and the friendship in me is for YOU..!

However when you added additional lines, and break the word up in the wrong place, it cease being an acrostic.
... but it's one of you best and I loved the ending.
Thanks a ton for your thoughts on this. I'm honored!
Thanks a ton kind ma'am for your thoughts. And the reason behind those lines within the parenthesis is as an impetus to the word flow. I could have as well added them with the previous lines, but, I felt that it would lead to a better enunciation when inserted between two stanza points.
Thanks for pointing it out. Infact I had plans of putting a footnote as an explanation to these parenthesized words- I am glad that you pointed them.
Happy to see you here and I am glad that I have been an electron in lighting it up!

kudos!! wonderfully expressed! and yeah.. its no longer acrostic but what the hell its a beauty!!!
you sparked my creative light bulbs :)
Viewing it from the point of a 'work' as opposed to an acrostic makes it a narrative that is more intresting in itself..would've made a superb acrostic for sure had you stuck to the rules!!..Good 1 anyways dude!!
Very nicely written with strong words. Loved the last three lines.
m just smiling as you descrie friendship is such a sweet way !!
