Could someone tell me,
Why someone so far away,
Has come to mean so much to me,
Makes my soul laugh and play?

Why someone I've never even met,
Affects my life each day?
Makes a difference in the mundane,
How just a few words can take those blues away?

Having taught me much,
A kind of mentor,
Understand me so well,
I need not close the door.

I can be myself,
Every weird little thing,
In that prescense,
I hear freedom's bell ring.

A smile each day,
A short email,
The odd poem or card,
Happiness prevails.

Uncanny the likenesses,
The same heart and soul,
The same spirit inside,
A friendship that'll never take it's toll.

It's amazing, I've been blessed,
I'm so happy to have found a kindred spirit,
A precious gift of understanding,
I pray nothing will ever end it.



 I'll tell you this...... No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn.....

You echo my feelings with this one Isis. It is indeed an amazing feeling, I am so very glad that you have experienced it.  

Your work is always good but when you write with a happy heart it gains a little something....I hope to see more of this from your pen. Great work!  

 God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown

 I think I could need - this in my life
I think I'm just scared - that I know too much
I can't relate and that's a problem
I'm feeling ...
If you're gone - maybe it's time to go home
There's an awful lot of breathing room
But I can hardly move
If you're gone - baby you need to come home
cuz there's a little bit of something me...
In everything in you.

Isis that was beautiful. Even though the screen detaches us we can share our secrets without fear, we can reveal ourselves more through our verses than we ever could in life.  
a wonderful poem.

To find the same spirit is amazing in this day and age, and you will now loose it, remember it takes two to hold up that bridge.
I'm at my dad's again, had to get away.
love ya kid.

Joel.

 I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
