A Poem by my Dearest Friend, with Counterpoint by Me! |
I would sing a song for you, that you would hear the sound, of two souls in perfect harmony I would dance with you, across the barren plains, that you would know the steps that friendship takes Our footsteps would sow the seeds terraforming, spreading life in the void I would read to you a story, a tale of wonder told, with such vivid euphony I would gaze into your eyes, that you would see in mine, the moment trust awakes She reads from books thought lost to the ages. The prophesied night of a thousand years the funeral of the sun forgotten at the end of the eclipse I would journey far and wide, to have you by my side, that you would understand I would build a bridge, and beckon you to cross, that we would close the distant miles Yet the gulf bridges itself, the merest crack And the parsecs between us, a millimeter. "never and always," never meeting, though never out of reach in the place-beyond-time where words speak their harmony. I would reach out to you, that you would feel the touch, of friendship's open hand I would wipe your tears from you, that you would know that I, have come to stay awhile the tears so sweet, already washed away so much I would take your pain from you, that you would be released, from all that broke your heart I would pray for you, that you would come to know, the depths to which I care Yet how strange, sent to answer the prayer forming in her heart I would never let you go, so that you would know, we would never be apart I would have my dear friend feel, that all of which I speak, is all that we will share Now we form the golden cord that bridges time and space more profound than that between body and soul Poem: by: groovygirl Counterpoint: by Joto-Kai |
