Forged Anew

The probes are out, wary and tired.
The feeble bonds that had held us together gone.
We must forge our path anew.
The path will be laden with pitfalls and setbacks,
But I believe that our bond will be forged again.
Stronger than before but different in its own way.
More intimate yet not.
More bold yet not.
I will plow through all the obstacles,
I will not stop.
Because...
Friends don't stop.
They never give up.
They continue on till the end.
