Stay As True Friends

When miles come in numbers
it may seem a dream
of friendships that blossomed
that now seem supreme.

For two found a moment
as echoes they heard
that are now as miles
with just written word.

The friendships of theirs
came deep from within
as they followed their hearts
then time and agin.

The miles came quickly,
but yet they seemed slow,
for when they were together
they just didn't know.

The friendships still strive on
as miles come conclude
with letter after letter
as a friendship prelude.

For now still the friendships
of them each today
are holding fast together
in a lovingly way.

Love comes in packages
that miles can't destroy,
as they stay as true friends
as a girl and a boy.

So miles cannot dissipate
what's truly alive,
because it's the memories
that keep them alive.
