When Friend Becomes Stranger

Sharing secrets, sharing stories,
We talk everyday...
Feelings and emotions...
In every possible way.

Coffee, Lunch, Dinner...
We slowly start meeting up,
Gone are the days,
When we just used to say, "Sup?"

Such a beautiful bond;
Nothing gets in between.
Until one day it all shatters,
Without being seen.

You haven't spoken for days.
Responses take longer.
There's an empty hole in your heart.
When Friend Becomes Stranger.

Distance

With family, it could be the worst.
With friends, it could be bad.
With lovers, it could be heartbreaking.
With acquaintances, it could be a new beginning.

With family, it's a bonding factor.
With friends, it's a travel opportunity.
With lovers, it's a test.
With acquaintances, it's a new friendship.

In the past, there were letters.
In the present, there's Skype.
In the future, who knows?

One thing is for sure,
Distance formulates value.
Formulates strength.
Formulates responsibility.

It strengthens emotions.
Intensifies feelings.
Creates realizations.
Builds up personality.
