Friends. Poem by Craig H. Stewart

Friends.

Rating: 4.6


Unexpected festive mess we sing into the night,
I hear a happy siren song entwine around my own,
Smiling laughter, perfume lingers, warm around my neck,
I turn and see her, heartbeat drumming loudly in my chest,

Distant echoes drinking up the vibrant neon songs,
Gin soaked grin reminds me of the times when I was young,
Joyful souls adrift and singing high atop the world,
Our voices happy, harmonies like nothing ever heard,

Forging forth and out into the Wintry snow filled night,
Drunken tongue attempts to taste the essence of the sky,
Frosted glitter, spirits dancing, boisterous and unbound,
We huddle now, like newborn lambs, unseasoned to the ground,

And now, the twinkling tender glow of fireside calls us home,
Steaming tea and toasted feet, our memories unbound,
Distant wisdom, Childish laughter, longing to be free,
Realising, Finally, I'm where I need to be.

Friends.
