"Love, and yes, our friendships too,
Balancing all is such a hard task,
Perspective all swirled and skewed,
How do we reign in entities so vast,
Retaining sanity and sense of who,

"Circles within circles." so says I,
"Lines upon lines, angles in angles,
Time, too much complicates as it flies,
Love, friendship and other such tangles,
Now deeply breath, while facing the skies,
Put away uncertainty, confusion strangle,
Hold tightly your faith and to blood ties,
As your rock, all else is fleeting spangle."

scuffs you up,
kicks you around...
this is what you must do,
to find your direction-
