Friendship

Friendship

You come to me, You say you need me

You cry for me, You say you can't live without me

I see the intensity in your eyes

I see you sizzle with passion

I see the wanton desire

I see the careless craving

You want to move mountains

You want to build castles

You want to clear the seas

You want to lay the roads

All that, you implore, is to make me the Queen

It feels great to be loved,

To be cherished and cared for

But, my love, my friend, in life there is more

You can share my essence

But you can't have it all

For it is not yours to take

Just as it is not mine to give

Let me tell you this little life secret

Today I am the space between your words,

Tomorrow you will get busy,

and I'll become the comma in your sentences,

Though few in number, maybe you'll pause longer

That day is not too far, we both know deep inside,

there will be a time for the full stop.
