We are not friends....

we are not friends…

we’ve never invited each other for dinner
or exchanged gifts,
or made plans to catch the first day first shows
we’re not even connected on Facebook,
nor do we make each other laugh on snapchat
we are poles apart…
but in the endeavour, in resolve…
we’re quite alike
strangers in real life…
but when we meet,
there’s an unspoken bond,
a trust that is deeply felt,
and holding hands a new sky opens up.
strangers…

yet closer than friends
