And goes for ever.... “But of course, dear Friend,
(Where did she learn “Dear Friend?”)
Should I discover when I search my heart
That God has sealed me for some other life,
That my intended vow of resignation
Is only pride, why then I’m free again.
I pray for you,” etc., and etc.
Dear Friend? lover or nothing it must be.
I’m tired of friends, I’m past the need of friends.
We never talked religion till that day.
