Dignified distances where proximity doesn’t need to be,
Is the true source of pleasure that means so much to me.
Caring blankness where expressions don’t need to be,
Is the true face of contentment that means so much to me.
Gratifying cries where laughs don’t need to be,
Is the true sight of comfort that means so much to me.
Comforting taunts where praises don’t need to be
Is the true sound of repletion that means so much to me.
Satisfying indifferences where attention doesn’t need to be,
Is the true sense of complacency that means so much to me.
Acceptance of realities where fantasies don’t need to be,
Is the true sign of maturity that means so much to me.
Understanding silences where words don’t need to be,
Is the true gift of FRIENDSHIP that means so much to me.
