he asks me
How are you?
I reply
*You know...
same old same,
desolate...
antsy, empty...
and you?*
His reply?
*Same difference
but I won't complain
I'm breathing and talking
to you*
He sits me down
in front of a virtual fireplace
and instructs me through life
leaving just a minuscule trace
of his own footsteps
even though his tread
should be heavier
for the burdens he carries
are colossal against mine
but he takes the time...
To listen to my words
and answer my pleas
He understands
and sees what I don't see
I erred in titling this
my friend
I meant
my Mentor
my Heart~ache, my Hero
my understanding unconsciousness
give, Give, give, never take
I have this friend
who never unanswered
any prayer
if you have an Angel
that you can spare...
Free her wings and let her fly
she knows where she is going
and she knows why
where she needs to be...
tell my friend I sent her
Angel dust and fairy wishes
are what he needs to see :)
