We have known each other longer than most people can imagine.
We have cried together and laughed together.
We have always been there for each other
and yet the world was between us.

For all these years we dared not hope for a chance to be closer
for that would mean that there was a possibility.
Yet all we had were dreams.

We have both been things for the other
that neither of us are.
An illusion made clear by distance.
Yet as real as the lives we shared.

The times have slowly changed

We have the opportunity to truly see the other.
Yet we both hesitate.

Is it that we are afraid of what we might find?
Or is it that we are each afraid to let the other
look freely into our soul?

For there are many things that we dare not show anyone.

Is it that we do not believe the other is strong enough to view such things?
Or is it that we are not strong enough to allow the other to see?

We both know more about the other than most any one else,
so why are we afraid?

Maybe it is because we do know so much of the other
or is it that we do not know enough?

What is to become of us is yet unknown.

But I do know this ...
no matter what happens ...
I am glad you are my friend.

With love ... as always.
