Drifting Continents

Drifting Continents

Drifting continents...
 
Old friends from youth
Precious memories melded 
With modern technology 
FaceTime and Bluetooth 

These generous souls
Filled the void of a black hole
Warmed adolescent personality 
With the light of spring 
Banishing the dark winter cold

In the dawn of the millennium 
Shelter from the winter storms
Cradelled insecurities 
Comforted by a council gas fires warm

They gave sanctuary
To two insecure souls 
We were the seeds of crime 
We would have germinated over time
Becoming incarcerated and cold 

How time fades
Like a BBQ briquettes glow
Distance is only distant
If you let it be so
