Friends

by Eric Y. Theriault

Kind words.
An understand ear.
Perhaps several thousand miles away,
But still closer than my closest neighbour.

Darkest Secrets.
Strangest of Dreams.
You understand it all,
Even when my world crumbles and falls.

Neverending compliments.
A new perspective of the world.
We have completely different lives,
Yet we are so much alike.

Laughter;
Followed by Tears.
I know not what brought us together,
Yet I wish nothing to break us apart.
