I declare I am an island
I will live on bread alone
no time will be spent
with friends breaking bread
Just me
myself
and bread rolls
Was content in my own company
stewed in my own soul
Till I became too comfortable
and contempt grew strong
Ingrown.
Your misery surely needs company
Said a voice wise in its hunger
There are forces unseen that change our direction
In time a path is shown
Forces unseen
nudge creatures to coalesce
saint meets sufferer
a starved heart draws it's lover
soft minds for the teacher
old friends come together
So there was I
jammed in a cold hole
unexpectedly
time reminded me
delivered food for my soul:
familiar company
how did I forget the warmth
grub amongst friends is so much more
For the occassion
a toast to the newlys
Clink
we laughed over stories
I chewed fish
a fresh feast
the sun shone
my heart beat
No longer surviving
living not lacking
The laughter of old friends
The joy of overcoming
The peace of understanding
