take me
far away from here
to a place held dear
in the clouds, by the shore
on a wave, crashing more
take me
into heart for all
time to be friends
you and me
hearts are more than lust
love is more than must
so much more
take me
as friend once more
I lost trust, doors closed
scenarios were posed
whether we are once again
you will be forever in my heart
as friend
Love may wither and die like a flower but friendship lives like the rest of the plant. Sometimes we need to let the flower wither and die to find the true beauty that is the plant hidden beneath. I can only hope you and I will one day be able to see again the plant that was growing long before the flower blossomed.
