To the untrained eye
It may seem as though you and I
Would be very best friends,
Which is true; friends ‘till the bitter end
But you and I
Together have touched the sky,
Many moons ago,
When we used to fly on wings as white as snow.

But you and I
Can speak words with the blink’in of our eyes
The world can’t comprehend,
When two hearts race, they both will win.

To the untrained eye
It may seem as though you and i
Would be very best friends,
Which is true; friends ‘till the bitter end
But you and I
Together have touched the sky,
Many moons ago,
When we used to fly on wings of powdered snow.

The author's comments:
This is about my very best friend. No joke. But whether you believe that or not, I know you believe in the complex art of expressing and painting your soul through words, or in this instance, music. May you feel the truth of my words and realize everyone has a someone that they're connected to like this. You only have to open your eyes and to see it.

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
