Here's To Our Friendship

On countless voyages
with all the tides and ridges,
We've sailed the seas
along with those- they witness

Dying but alive in each other's arms
loveless and blind, holding on as always,
Yes, affirmative along the lines
confirmed by the teas in our eyes

Rolling down our sconed faces
from long distances with love's bliss
accolades of undefeated friendly kisses
with these they warm our hearts 

Rinsed by the rain's showers 
secluded and concealed by God's grace
until the end of time, to heaven, not the abyss
I call on the eminent sun to shine

And dry all our teas and sorrows
but we pray you to do it slowly.
