FRIENDSHIP

F riendship is a vessel sailing the seas
R aging uncontrollable waves crest high
I ntriguing the cause of Life's stormy breeze
E ndeavors shaped by those who want to try
N ot one, but together, we chase the skies
D istant clouds not a problem for us to face
S ince we share common bonds, a thread that ties

F orever strung, holding life in its place
O blivious to those who can not share
R emembering only for Heaven's sake
E ndless dreams of loneliness we bare
V erifying the paths we choose and take
E veryone looks towards future skies
R aging against waves of coming good-byes

Your beautiful words & creativity allow me to connect with the same in myself.  
Thank you for having the courage to share yourself so that I can too

This is lovely, I thoroughly enjoyed. Chris

Friendship is a treasure. To be a friend no matter what and when you have to give one up...God, it hurts so bad....so bad...ok, this is...never mind, just sad.

Kay - I am sorry to have stirred such sadness
      not my intentions with this piece ...
      I was hoping for more of a guide to
      friendships at hand than those found
      sadly out of reach. If you find
      yourself at such a lost, just come
      here and seek me out. I will try to
      spring a smile or two just for you.
