It's the 1-year of my friendship to  Mantrid_Brizon, and this is the gift I made for it. Here's to many more great years to come!!

Who said that words defined the boundaries

 

That demarcated the stages of friendship?

 

That you're not a good friend

 

Until it is said so?

 

Yet, a friendship

 

Of which stage it is in is not said

 

Can become close

 

No matter how rhetorical the question

 

How obvious the answer

 

It was cathartic to think about it

 

Like trying to find a hidden sagacity

 

That was not there

 

But the thing about our friendship is,

 

Is that it has been only a short while now

 

But it felt far more than that

 

As if we knew each other for aeons

 

As if we did brave all the wars of mankind together

 

And seen the dawn of existence as one

 

So that we can be so inseparable now

 

Ah yes, we can agree

 

That a friend

 

Of which I will go to the ends of the earth for

 

Is a truest of true friends

 

And very few so thus I would do it for

 

And very few I would die for

 

For no greater love is it indeed

 

To give up your life for those you care so much for

 

And so thus I'll let you know

 

Although you already do know

 

And I know that you know

 

That there are few in my life

 

I'd do all that aforementioned things for

 

That there are few in my life that I will move heaven and earth for

 

And of those few, you are most joyfully blessed to be one of them
