Friend

by Sharon/Cancer - Not entered

With my eyes open wide
I see you standing
before me.
There is something truthful
something searching
something honorable
in your soul.
A soul so quiet 
with understanding.
Can you hear it?
The sound a wing makes
when it splits the wind?
So much strength
yet so effortless.
You were there
when I searched
for a friend.
A friend to laugh with. . .
to share with. . .
and to cry with.
I have been here
long before you came.
I will be here 
long after you go away.
I will wait. . .
