Elke Nigro - Friendship

Friendship

A hunger and thirst too strong can make a
friendship go wrong. Only a Love can contain it.

At its best, friendship means having someone
to lean on gently,

Someone to confide and share separate hopes
and dreams, allowing space in-be-tween,

A space that may or may not be bridged over time,
since Friendship and Love have their own paradigm.
