Forever

There is a certain pleasure in finding someone and falling in love

Nothing can compare to that feeling and nothing can replace it

There can be similar pleasure found in finding a friend to love

The connection of heart and mind is formed and designed to last forever

All designs are flawed and rarely does forever last that long

The pain felt when you're hurt by those you love is also unique

Sometimes the only forever within that connection is the loss

Today I made contact with a friend who had said forever

We both had hurt and been hurt, I thought there was no return

Sometimes when it looks as though all is lost

You just need to take a moment to not only look, but step forward

Today I smile, a friend has returned and perhaps this forever will be
