-16- 
Divided by miles, 
Oceans apart, 
Lives separated, 
Friendship torn apart. 
 
Is love strong enough 
To withstand the force 
Of a planned friendship 
Set off course? 
 
Isolation hurts. 
Loneliness kills. 
We cannot live together 
And have our lives filled. 
 
Memories die 
Hurt lives on. 
Our first good-bye 
Was our last one. 
 
 
-17- 
Words unspoken never felt the light of day 
Secrets locked within that hide the pain 
When will the light shine upon those that bear the message love? 
Those which we feel, those that we love 
We keep locked up in our hearts. 

Feel the spirit of the flower of love that opens with those that water it. 
Fell free and let free those that you cherish most; 
In their passing they shall fall upon rich soil 
They will feel the warmth and see the light 
And from this love will grow. 

We must give in order to receive 
But giving is always hard. 
If we believe strongly we shall receive that which is greater than all man. 
The reason for living, without which our souls will die 
This can be yours just give. 

Life is short but the riches of love can make it last forever. 
The words we hide soon die in our hearts. 
The fruit can no longer bear its seed. 
Make use of the time you have 
Love with every breath you breathe. 
 
 
-18- 
Just when life was about to end 
The sun would set on day 
There was a light, a miracle 
And you were sent my way. 

Just when I had thought 
That I could love no more 
I felt the beat of my heart 
And you were at my door. 

Just when I felt to cry 
My heart would shed its tears 
I tasted life, I tasted love 
And you showed you cared.
