Like the Deep and Distant Sea

 "The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart." ~Elisabeth Foley
 
 
Linking with Poetry Jam for the "Friends Prompt"
 
 
 
Once my dear friend and I were like a sailboat upon the open sea.
we drifted close and constant towards the horizon in symmetry.
 
The days were long and beautiful with adventures around each bend
but in time the nights grew shorter and our comradery would soon end.
 
Now my sails have shifted and her seas are distant beyond my view.
We travel different harbors though we still stare at the same moon.
 
Yet the absence and the gap that has divided us to different shores
serves only to magnify the deep love that we share at our heart's core.


Dedicated to a dear friend that was my first best friend.  We have spent most of our friendship far apart from each other, but every time we come back to each others shore it is like we never parted, and the relationship that we share has only grown deeper with time, like the great waters within the sea.
