jin says

no way like she means it

then sunlight streams 

she delights in my wicked ways

with half hearted suggestions

intent on never slowing me down

 

she has my soul

or part thereof,

deceivingly

she winds magic

around the spools of lunacy

and still calls me friend

 

there is no more to ask

than a desert sky

raining colors

from her eyes

 

unrestrained joy seems

as palpable as my own

reflected in late nights

warm air and bright nations

lit by an alien

 

foreign yet all ours

and now he is yours too

 

for once the stars shine

your heart will never put them out

 

elevated

deviated

migrated

 

to where all streets know your name

 

 

 

Author notes

If anyone could describe a friend in one word, I know I could and it would simply be "Jin"
you know who loves ya gal...too infinity and beyond...it's there to reach out and grab it all
and know I am there with you xxxxx

In a list

Ya think?

    Excellant tribute to a dear friend

    If we all did this to at least one friend, what a close knit group of friends we would have started. Then if they did the same, and so on . The world might soon connect...mac

    I am smiling over here because I know the intensity of this relationship. You are Siamese twins that were disjointed at birth, both spilling the same wonderful, warm spirits. I love this! Jin is worthy of these words. And you are adorable for writing with such grace and friendship. This is BEAUTEOUS!

    Love You Both ♥

    Renee

      Thanks my friend, a U2 concert is always a very uplifting and spirit filled event for me and it was such a bonus to score tickets only 3 days before the concert. I must have had some good karma going on there huh?

      Yanno K I think we all probably do know someone like this, but sometimes it's that special moment when together you realise how lucky you are to know them

      And I love you right back and those girls of yours! All the unexpected surprises that come when you are not thinking of them..that's U2 and you and me being there, what are the odds of it happening like that huh? You had done so much for me and had been such an ear too when I question and over analyze things I did say you should tell me to shut up lol Aussies never take offence. Somethings in life are meant to be, that was U2, you Jin are just someone who I will always love and adore...juls you and me and the girls on route 66 across america lol Now there would be a tour!!!

            lol, I just asked her and she said we could put her in a suitcase and send her to Juls and she'll bring her some more Peeps. those two dont need us....so funny. they could exist happily without either of us, huh???
            Emily misses you Chez. She says she doesnt even mind that she gave up her room for you.
