Letter to Emily

My friend!
My soul-sister!
My bandita freedom-fighter!

O those glorious roads we travel!
O those sights we see
and bridges we cross,
cliffs we scale!

How will my heart become full again?

It is the fresh face,
it is the crooked beaming smile -
one tooth and one nail at a time -

when it is us again
and the steps and strides
never fell out of sync!

It is You and I,
my dear dear friend.

That is how.

How I will miss you.
How my spirits will fly
again someday.
