Sonnet 05: Lyrics of Life By Christen Kuikoua

Oh, friend once close, in passion's fiery dance, Now vanished, like a fleeting specter's chance. Our paths diverged, collided in fierce fray, A tempest of rejection, love's fierce display. Yet midst the distance, love's spark endured, A phoenix rose, from ashes reassured. Though orbits shifted, stars no longer linked, In our hearts, a bond, in time unshrinked. The canvas of our friendship, vivid, vast, With bold strokes and shadows, shadows cast. In absence, love's mosaic still persists, A treasure hidden, like a secret tryst. Oh, dearest friend, though worlds apart we roam, In our hearts' tapestry, you'll find your home.
