soul mates like you
are very special to me,
the entirety of my existence
is your devoted friendship.
never do I clench a fist.

friends like you
are valuable,
and I cherish to know
that despite our disagreements
We remain friends.
rarely do I clench a fist.

acquaintances like you
tend to get on my nerves,
I sense a lack of caring and trust,
because your priorities must be wrong.
often do I clench a fist.

people like you
gradually drift away
in search of different bonds.
I sit without you and wonder,
why did I ever clench a fist?

strangers like you
I wish I knew.
