True Love of Coffee

Friends
I had dinner tonight with a friend and while I often have a comical nature in person, I believe in sharing ideas and moments.

Sometimes those moments are within an idea: to define my idea of friendship, of hope, and of faith. There are few people in the world who share such things, few people who connect and have good hearts and faithful hope of the future, people who care. So, to my friend who leaves for Chicago. Good travel, bright future, and a thousand hopeful wishes for you. Live well, Laugh Often, & Love Much. Life holds an amazing future.

Friends,

Are the people in life,
who fight the good fight,
and stand by your side
when no one else cares,
or remembers.

They are the tone
of perfect harmony
in a chorus of chaotic melody
where you try to stand out
and only can with their help.

Friends are,
without pretense
or false doubt,
they are the fiber
of everything you believe.

They do not care
for trivial collections
or meaningless action,
and they cherish every second
of worthwhile silence.

Friends are the people
who define life,
by staying true in hard times
and good,
or moments of simple hope.

They are the ones who have faith,
in who you are,
the ones that keep you warm,
when your eyes are closed,
even when they cannot be there.

Friends are, simple.
Honest,
True.
They believe
in everything you are.

If I could have one friend,
or many,
I would wish,
again,
To have another one like you.
