watching some people i didn't know
playing football where we use to play
hoping to join but they were all too good
and alex's knee was hurt so he could
not come jogging with me
so she was there
going as she always goes
and i joined
as she asked
and i hoped
it was my first time in ages
and just too much i guess
but it was just so wonderful!
fresh air, beatiful evening
free space and me and her
talking, talking endlessly!
hardly noticing the running!
neglecting the tiredness i
made it through all the way
one hour and twenty minutes
my legs hurt still but
what wouldn't you do for a friendship?
