Marc, My Words

Talk about a history, wrapped up in the past,

Ancient Japanese in the days of flashing steel,

Battlegrounds and making peace, something that still lasts,

Correlations for the ripples past and present feel.

------

Talk about a fantasy, something we create,

Magic beasts and destinies of light and dark entwined,

Deep within the cannot-be's to which we can relate,

Respite from the problems that we both should leave behind.

-----

Talk about a memory, one that two recall,

Fumbling to repair those times when tension broke and bled,

Stumbling, but remembering that those times were not all,

Friendship was the strongest, and will stay as I have said.

-----

Talk about reality, what is yet to be,

Twenty years from now and what we'll both be living through,

I imagine that our bond of words will keep us free,

Screams are pain, silence despairs, but talking is with you.
