The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other’s life. ~ Richard Bach
gratitude overflows
from my eyes
unspoken
from my eyes
unspoken
take me to your feet
that i may
speak to you,
unspoken
far from you
my heart lies,
sorrowful
and broken
yet with me, you are
you say
every moment,
unbroken
in the sorrow in the joy
my friend you are
my family
and the truth
in my heart
remains unspoken
untaken
yet you know, and i know
and we reach
across to us
and the bond that seemed
unknown,
sown again,
unbroken
