I Like My Friends Close

I like my friends close
Heart to heart
A bridging gaze
Through the tip of the nose

Snuggles, kisses and hugs
Are walls to the home
Of each others arms
Here we live
Safe from harm

Love is our faith
Preach and pray
May we always stay this way

Wrap my limbs
In the vow
Of our friendship
Hold me
In the generosity of witnessing
You.

I reach, tumble and try
To forever
Never hide

For dear friend
You are
One of millions
Of hearts
That collide
Into mine.
