Friendship

The friends talking
Talking catching up
Catching up trivialities
Trivialities exchanged
Exchanged with ease

For they are partaking joy
Joy of friendship and love
Love of seeing missed ones
Its what drives this bond
A bond pleasurable delightful

You have to look into their eyes
To realize they feel deeply yes
For each other at times this bond
superseded the overrated bond of love
Ascribed through the lens of soap opera

True friendship is learned, like everything else. And when it is realized for what it really is, God is... It exist because we do grow and get better. Because it takes one to recognize one. And then the art of expressing such realization.
