Just a name on a page Yet that one word speaks volumes Straight to my heart What fate has conspired to make This bond so strong How can it be so easy, exchanging all these thoughts? There's something so familiar As though it's been this way before. Did I know you in a past, forgotten life And were we dearest friends? How else this easy melding Of mind, of hearts, of thoughts We're friends... such a simple word Yet it seems so crystal clear You've occupied a special place And made it all your own. You've called up a truer me Than what I've usually shown. With you it's always comfortable With you, there is an honesty No reservations, simple trust It really doesn't matter how it came to be The friendship's all that matters You're very special and dear to me A friend of the soul.

Welcome to Passions and welcome to CA, peppermint.... Nice work here. regards, sudhir Hey you, out there in the cold, Getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me? Hey you, standing in the aisle, With itchy feet and fading smile, can you feel me? Hey you, don't help them to bury the light. Don't give in without a fight. Hey you, out there on your own, Sitting naked by the phone, would you touch me? Hey you, with your ear against the wall, Waiting for someone to call out, would you touch me? Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone? Open your heart, I'm coming home.... by Roger Waters (Pink Floyd) - The Wall |

Dear peppermint35,welcome to Passions ![]() Ditto the comments of those before me....lovely poem about friendship not too good a poet, i'm afraid but "How can it be so easy, exchanging all these thoughts?" is longer than the rest of the poem and somehow, this bothered me a little when i read through it.... Perhaps breaking this line into two will make this more visually consistent.... Of course, you can ignore me...only you know what's best for your work ![]() looking 4ward to reading more ![]() ![]() |
