Analysis of friends

To a friend that is of now ,to a friend that is slowly drifting away.
 not in death, but in close proximity,but still seen and spoken about.
 Some-one who treasures their sight and ears,who only wishes
that they stay as  before ,who shall remain on terms of close personal
standing Our intentions are of a mutual understanding ,that wiil never cross those bounderies of formality, that exist between friends.
