You do not have to speak in a language that I understand
I can already see the vision in your eyes
There is no need to show me your weakness
Or how I can take advantage
Friendship does not trade on trust

But your burdens are welcome
As is your pain
For these things require no commitment from you
The already exist
And the vision we share is the same
As is the memory of the past
All we lack is the courage to be human

We walk on warped plywood
Painted with what to do with our time
It's the next layer I'm talking about
It's not what I need from you that matters
It's that we are ready for the same color
Even if we never find it
Because
It's the vision and not so much the focus
That would be too much work
The burdens we carry do not need new friends
Only the idea that someone knows what to do with them
