Time

Three months,
A week,
A day,
Four hours,
Two minutes,
None.

The only way to value time
Is to see what is held by it.

So have a childhood together,
A week on a holiday,
A day spent at the park,
An hour at lunch,
Seven minutes on the phone,
Or none.

As long as we hold this friendship dear,
I will value both a childhood and no time at all.
For though I value the time I spent with you,
Superseding that is our bond.

An hour in a cab,
Twenty-four hours in a plane,
A couple days in Boston,
A year as a sophomore.

I will truly miss your company.
