Friends

Like the tide

Come and go

Ne’er do they abide

Over hearts

And minds

They swell

But do not dwell

Tarry long

I pray thee

But they pay no mind

Looking on to the next wind

Plotting the next thrill

Compasses leaning over keel

Heart and hearth have they none

Neither kith, nor kin

O’er sea and desert

They set sail

Like nomads

They traverse

Through Dust and tears

Below starry skies

A new victim they seek

Upon whom to leech

Lindae
