dVerse: Friend in Oz

dVerse: To Friends




our souls must have met
on another plane
or in another life
that our hearts 
have reached across oceans
and entwined

we have hugged
and held each other
in times of sorrow
jumped up and down
when struck by glee

my visit to Montemarte
my first outing in Paris
was because of you
i loved knowing 
you had walked there
before me

we used to talk daily
through facebook
now rarely
but our closeness
never recedes
you have touched my life
part of me is always with you
sight unseen
