Sonnet 05: Lyrics Of Life Poem by Christen Kuikoua

Oh, friend once close, in passion's fiery dance,
Now vanished, like a fleeting specter's chance.
Our paths diverged, collided in fierce fray,
A tempest of rejection, love's fierce display.

Yet midst the distance, love's spark endured,
A phoenix rose, from ashes reassured.
Though orbits shifted, stars no longer linked,
In our hearts, a bond, in time unshrinked.

The canvas of our friendship, vivid, vast,
With bold strokes and shadows, shadows cast.
In absence, love's mosaic still persists,
A treasure hidden, like a secret tryst.

Oh, dearest friend, though worlds apart we roam,
In our hearts' tapestry, you'll find your home.
