Friendship

A friendship ~ such a beautiful experience between two people. The honesty, the comfort, the joy and sorrows shared.

To love and be loved ~ To accept and be accepted ~ What greater gift is there?

The love of a friend

Is such a precious gift

Which must be treasured

Nurtured and protected from harm

The feelings run deep
Like the ocean depths
Deeper and deeper they envelop my soul
Yet they feel so familiar
Have we been here before,
In another life, another time?

I treasure these moments
As my spirit takes flight
On the wings of an eagle
I experience such joy
When our moments we share together

Such moments are exquisite
When we open to each other
And lay bare our souls
Revealing our deepest thoughts
Exchanging our energy

Long before our souls took this shape
We gave our energy
Through powerful heart pulses
Communicating our thoughts, our feelings
No need for words
Our hearts were open to sharing

In our human forms
When a pulse is exchanged
It becomes an extraordinary experience
Bursting from one heart to another
The sensation is so strong
As I feel the energetic pulse move between us

I can hear and feel your heart beat

I can sense your strength

As I'm rocked by this pulse
Which was given in a moment

But kept for a lifetime

This friendship ~ such a surprise

As it grows between us

What drew us together

A simple connection or a deeper familiarity

Have I known you before?

Is this friendship

As delicate as a dried flower petal

Liable to break apart

Under the slightest pressure

I dare not hold too tightly

Or the petal may crumble

Oh dear friend

I keep you close to my heart

And pray you feel the same

May our friendship stand the test of time

And sustain us as we grow old together
