My oldest friend,
To what do you tend.
I think of you as a sister,
How can I repay you for
The kindness you’ve shown to me?
In my dreams I still can see,
The old days when I was free to be me.
I wish I could see your face.
I’m afraid it would be a sight
For sore eyes
A pain like pepper mace
Because the long space . . .
