TRYST WITH FRIENDSHIP

In the sheer complexity 

Of the tests of friendship

We tend to forget 

The simplest of solutions

Let your friendship float 

Above the surface

Don't allow it to sink

Down to grave secrets 

Of each other 

It reveals poison 

And sooner your friendship

Longs for sunlight 

Longs for love

Down in the trenches under the sea

Truth is the pinch 

Of reality, of justice

Which will shatter your weak friendship

And test its authenticity

But if it passes

There will be a hand 

Long enough,

To pull it up high 

And propel into the sky !
