A Kindred Spirit


His goodness edged its way
into the farther-most reaches
of this friends heart

Knowing what to say when  the
words were all that needed to be spoken
Soft thoughts of childhood memories
shared between two souls that found
each other  in the early morning hours

Laughing at the foolish mistakes that
were made years ago and  the lessons
that were learned from them

The past continues to fill your mind and body
with pain that has overpowered your life
A constant battle daily, fighting off the evils
of uncontrollable circumstances

Trust and fondness held the key and opened
the doors that kept us safe
Freeing our voices fearlessly
while bonding a friendship


With a heart filled with love,
A soul full of compassion
I pray that you will find strength within
yourself to get through this period of tribulation

Turn the love you have for others into a shield
of self preservation

    This is beautiful and filled with wisdom. I especially love the ending thought, it's original and wonderful advice:
    "Turn the love you have for others into a shield
    of self preservation"
    Fantastic!
