a friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words...
****************************************************
Entrapping of my harmony's joy stings
yet is soothed by the salve of gentleness.
Singing melodies my heart has hidden,
comfort sweeps my soul as your voice echoes.
Not a word of deep worry escapes me...
your wisdom only sees my bleary eyes
and vocalizes my spirit's calming
while capturing my sanity with ease.
Locked behind walls, taken from your freedom,
the silence of your voice is not quiet.
Closing my eyes to the darkness about,
the light of your voice leads me down my path.
Needing soft music to enter within,
I've been unable to turn to myself.
Knowing only one offering your gift,
I recall the tune played from your friendship.
Encouraging, lifting me from the ground,
treasures you placed within my hands still shine,
lending the ability to take flight
and remain on the course I once mapped out.
Today, amongst the chaos of my world,
serenity was lent through memories.
As I embraced the strength offered from you,
my wings spread and soared to the mountain tops.

(quote used for insiration in this write)
this is to the one person in the entire universe who has ever completely understood me and not condemned me for the way i am. i sure miss him right now but hearing his voice, even through memories, is extremely reassuring.
thank you for reading and commenting on my work.
