He sits far off...
I live just here...
We long for all time...

Classmates, childhood peers...
Bond established, behold, a friendship...

"Hold on, I will help"
"Nice of you bro"
"You never get tired of me?"
Same circle repeated in reciprocation.

Bond consumed by events...
Life visits the idea in marriage and work...
Duty distorts the union...
Distance sets in...

Clouds bathe the earth...
Nature feeds time in dry season and rainy season...
Spring, summer, fall and winter...
Harvest upon harvests...
The plants keep recircling...

Call far from made...
Communication disconnected...
Letter writing old-fashioned...
Mail far from thought...

Boom, nature connects...
Reunion for the first time...
Nothing changes except AGE.
The bond still same and fresh

No guilt!
No shame!
No blame!
Sane game!
Same bond.
The help continues...

The bond of friendship is indestructible...
This is for all my friends who still love and care in spite of the distance that keeps us far away from each other.

All my friends who don't complain no matter the distance...
