Friends

"Hello, there."

It's so good to hear.

Your voice as my friend,

The other as my love.

How could this be?

I thought I was alone.

Then I looked up, and saw you standing there.

You weren't alone when I looked.

My first enemies now my first friends.

There were others to meet, to know.

How could this be?

So many through my shields.

How could this be?

I care, and am cared for.
