MY CHILDHOOD FRIEND

Just then I remembered my childhood friend,

How we grew up together carrying each other’s dream on our head.

How closeness made us look alike.

And how she always whispers “you are the one I like”

I remember my childhood friend.

How we thought we’ll never end.

How peace springs from our smile.

And how we never imagined ourselves in a far mile.

I remember my childhood friend.

How we were  calming agent to each other’s anger

We still talk but just like strangers.

Distance happened I guess.

On a second thought, I think it shouldn’t be an excuse.

I remember my childhood friend.

And I wish she didn’t travel

Now I intentionally celebrate all friendships.

All friends who still stand together, having each other’s back and building resiliently.

To my old friends, I’ve not forgotten you.

To my new friends,it must always get bigger and better.

True friendship is evergreen.

True friendship is priceless.
