FRIENDSHIP
As I sit here ruminating by my window,thoughts of present, past, and future whirl about the air. I vainly graspat them, these fleeting wispy ghosts, but to no avail. They evaporateinto a gray sea only to be carried away upon its never-ending tide.Some, however, taunt me as if wild grapes were hung just within reach of my eager hands.At some, my ship thrashes about like a foxensnared by steely gray jaws hidden in blades of emerald.I cry but no one is there.I am slowly drowning in this overwhelming floodwhose current sucks me into its abyssto be carried into a place of eternal darkness.I fall.My body is weightless,lifeless,surrounded by the broken fragments of my ship whose sails have enveloped around me.Through the veil a glimmer, whose bright multicolored cloakdims everything in my mind except for its presence, pierces me.The fog slowly disperses,revealing a shimmering sunextending its warming and resuscitating rays overmy face and body.I open my eyes -I see your face.
