Hey, friend

A delicate bond,

an unspoken invitation,

our close companion for

self-reflection, introspection,

honest, comforting

valuable, profound,

born from a simple yet

beautiful connection.

Love can be brief

only blossom in infancy,

hijack the senses

encourage discomfort, vulnerability,

yet gently breathing

transitioning and inspiring,

friendship expects only 

nurturing and tendering.
