Untitled: A Love Letter to a Friend

(These hands are REALLY mine.. hehehe)

In the privacy of this note

I pour into you my heart

So no one would see

And suspect this is just another art

I hold the candle

That will light both our ways

whichever the paths lead

let’s tread

to the unseen tomorrow

to future fights

to our sweet moments

to the merging of our likes

to loving each other’s “loves”

to breaking each other’s hearts

to charting each other’s place

to someday touching each other’s face

to singing same songs

to writing pointless poems

to celebrating lives

to weeping days

to surviving disappointments

to finding true love

to passing on to generations

            the story of us

to a friendship made beautiful

            by color, by age, by language, by space

I hold the candle you have placed in my hand

As we wander this forever changing land

Our Master-Igniter, promising fire all throughout

We will stay lighted without a doubt

I will be your life-long friend

I promise to trust you until we reach our end

If not on this earth, then in heaven we will meet

be blinded by His glory, while we sit at His feet.

*Note: This was a private poem I wrote to my friend. I decided to Put it up because I recently went through 'friendship tests' with those people around me i call friends. This is also a proof that friendships aren't perfect, that we make vows we can't keep, but we still love anyway.

 I faltered as a friend in so may ways. But, because we are both in the same 'Kingdom', we will always find each other at the the King's feet.
