Appreciation

In your arms I am at home safe and loved.

When we have to say goodbye,

even for a moment, it is so hard.

When you take my in your arms

for a fond farewell,

I am safely rapped in a cocoon

of warmth and friendship

that I never want to leave.

Why is it so hard to let go of you?

Is it simply our renewed friendship

or is it something more?

I am willing to risk my heart for

you, my friend, my love.
