Friends before Lovers
AS the days pass the memories of your smiling face and sweet voice linger in my mind. When we spoke our conversations were so intense and our points of discussions were stimulating.
When we first meet our lives were in turmoil but we always found time for each other. We chatted all times of the night and never knew a moment when we weren't thinking of each other. Our past had brought us many tears but that never seemed to matter in our hearts. We enjoyed sharing intiament moments together but were just as happy to hear the sound of each others voice on the phone.
The relationship we shared was actual simple and sweet but we made it so complex. Perhaps, that was our defense against getting to know each other to well. Although we were hard on each other we still maintained a special place in each others heart. Often I wonder what our relationship might have been but find myself being complacent with just being friends.
Our relationship was not based of sex or material things and our hearts were not filled with false love or lustful thoughts. With all the things we had put ourselves through the one thing we seemed to have held on to and respected above all things, was our friendship. For without being friends first, nothing else would have every come to be. We managed to start out building a good foundation knowing that in our hearts all things would follow in there proper and perspectives order.
I am thankful that we are still friends and I hope we will always remain that way. There is no doubt in my mine that our friendship was made by the Lord and will always be protected by Him. Thank you for being my friend!
