Two friends.




Two friends passing by,
thoughts of days past
and futures ahead.

Of keeping in touch,
and meeting again.
To reminisce memories
and live new ones.

Two hearts, beating slow,
in a faster world hurrying by,
Happy to have met,
and yet, heavy to separate.

Two friends, in their own journeys,
different paths, passing by,
holding hands, walking on.
Life smiling at them.
