It's a shame...
It’s a shame that sometimes
a closeness that once felt so strong and stable between two people,
can in a matter of minutes become a boundless distance,
cold and devoid of any positive emotions.
But still,
those of us left fighting the waves in the wake of such a crisis
swim strong and constant forward.
-
Like a shark if we let ourselves falter,
or rest,
or linger on the past we will die.
We'll grow stagnant, pathetic and wanting.
So breathe in a warm fresh breath alongside me.
Know that we now swim together as family,
towards a common purpose;
Growth, adaptation and survival.
Hoping that one day the storm will calm and the ocean flatten,
presenting us both with the clear horizon we've been waiting for.
