True Friends

a poem by Rishab Shanker

The distance remains the same
but the memories grow
and I long for the moments
spent by your side
as the days grow longer
and the nights grow darker
I see a light in the distance
the reflection of a teardrop
desperate to leave your eyes
and struggling to stay inside
as I see from a distance your lips
droop into a frown
and as I get close
I see a smile full grown
hours minutes and seconds
cannot separate true friends!
