it's

it's the difference between an acquaintance and friend
it's the change in the path with it rounds a small bend
it's the feeling you get when a small baby cries
it's the lump in your throat when your household pet dies
it's the doing of something you'll never regret
it's the promise to someone you'll never forget
it's the hug that you give to someone you don't know
as they cling to you tight, like they'll never let go
it's that tear in your eye when there's nothing to say
it's the light in their smile when you point them the way
it's the service you render, with naught in return
it's the gift that you're given you never could earn
it's all that and so much more

wishes

i wish you were sitting next to me right now
i'd put my head on your shoulder
and give a shuddering little sigh
the kind that people always give when they're trying not to cry
and then you'd put your head on mine
and we'd sit there for a while
listening to music
just enjoying each other's presence
and we'd talk
about things
and life
and music
you'd show me bands
i'd show you bands
we'd share jokes
we'd laugh
we'd tell stories
we'd play guitar
we'd talk with God
but mostly
we'd just be
together
we'd be
doesn't that sound good?
