Each time we hug
It is the moment
I unplug
At times
From life's
Harsh realities
Most times
Toasting to life's
Long-lasting
Delicacies.
I can still recall
The first time we met
Not yet recognizing
It was going to set
This journey
We have been sharing
Creating our own kind
First-class experiences
In the routine.
We dance and have coffee
Talk future and memories
Building
Brick by brick
The most precious
Skyscraper of friendship.
Each time we hug
We are honest at heart
Whether we are
Bursting out
With laughter
Or the hours we are
Caught in a sob.
My life is living it all with you
The hurt, the pain
The best, the great
There are not enough
Thank you's
To show my gratitude
But I hope you know
Each time we hug
It is me also exhibiting
I love you.
