I knew that you’d be pacing too…
sometime after 3:33
in the stillness
in the dark
your memory drifted by me
the meaning of friendship has never eluded me
the value of time well spent
the love of more than heart or flesh
the union that hands can never make
the bond that eyes and words alone can forge
like oaths will hold us in an embrace an embrace
more than time or touch could ever bear
somewhere after 3:33
a breath of you passed into me
