In Love With a Friend by T. Alisha Rogers

Here we are  

A place of comfort, safe 

A state knowing one cares

No pressure

No struggles

No conflict

In confidence, you know me

In comfort as we speak

You listen, say, tell

Truths

On each other, have we weeped

Revealing secrets, intimate details 

Increments of sorrow, compassion, pain

Silently we love, unspoken, unsaid

Bonded, symbiotically, logically

A glance, a touch, an extrasensory response 

Feel me, Feel me, Feel me

You, who I say, is my friend.
