TO MY FRIEND IN LONELY TIMES

To my friend in lonely times

Occupied the forefront of youthful imagination.

Your light shattered the desolation of my silent existence

The inspiration of all dreams, a lasting strength.

Dreams to be later molded and shaped into reality

Dreams that wouldn’t stand to be forgotten.

Thanks to you, a mountainous tower of electrifying light

Possibilities grasped; unlimited potential understood.
