The impressions friends and others make upon each other are by no stretch proportional to the length of time of their encounters…
it was a gentle thing
we took to following
we never said ‘we should’
but knew it was good
we saw what others missed
we strained to stay unkissed
you showed me what you could
prognosis seemed good
we heard each one our muse
we weighed life where we stood
we’ve grown to different views
but love it was good
