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
