A/N So I came up with this last night and thought I'd share. Please read and review!


We had a long happy friendship.

Sure there were

hardships

and times when we argued

or

fought.

But that's in the

past.

Right now as I stand over

you,

reading the carved

inscription

through blurry eyes,

all our happy memories come

rushing back like

a flood;

spreading through my mind like

a forest fire;

drifting in and out of focus like

the wind and air;

rooting themselves in secure places like

the rocks in loose earth.

Funny how the

Four elements

can relate to my emotions as

tears

streaked my face, and hit

the ground, mixing with the rain

as it poured down on

me

soaking my clothes as I remembered

us.


Please review, and let me know if I should continue!
