FRIEND

I will never forget
That time you helped me out
The time I was distraught
And you were there

We had chatted before
In a superficial way
Jokes and smiles with
Flattery and pleasantries

But on that night
We chatted for hours
You brought a smile to my face
And I needed that

It was that night
That cemented our friendship
Although we had not met
We became close friends

I know so much about you
And yet so very little
You almost know everything there is
To know about me

Although we are miles apart
In so many ways
My heart feels so close
To you, my dear friend.
