Friendship bordered countries

You're in Jordan and I'm in America
But you're still here
Because you're exactly like me.
We laugh at the same things.
We smile to be polite at the things we do not tolerate.
We rant to each other about the multiple days of endless people
That do not understand the things we think.
They do not understand the things we've come to know
They do not understand why we are the way we are.
They do not understand why we're closer to each other
And they're just on the other side of the walls.

You're in South Africa and I'm in America.
But you're still here.
Because you remind me of me.
We're both the possessors of ghosts that people don't know
We're both the ones that are there for everyone else.
We're both constructors of a world for everyone
While we struggle to find masts to uphold our own.
We listen to aged eons of words that ones don't understand
When we ourselves look for the solution to the problems at hand.
We dont look for the company of others
When they attract to us like magnets
And the others that are like us repell by force.

You're in Canada and I'm in America.
But you're still here.
Because you are an alter ego of me.
Our lives parallel just six months apart
When I fell in love, There was a break in your heart
When I graduated and moved away
You finally got the courage to continue and stay.
You listened to my stories and learned from my mistakes
But you still make your own and I help you along the way.


You're in Jordan, You're in South Africa, You're in Canada
And in America I am.
Oceans apart and hours of difference
You're still the closest ones to whom I stand.
Miles and miles of separation and perception
With open arms will I always make my reception.
Trust me always when I say
I'm only ever a phone call away.
I'm in Jordan, South Africa, and Canada
And America you may be
But always remember, wherever you are.
You're always with me.
