catch and release

for a reason, for a season
a time in the world
so have I handled friendships
for most of my life
few friends have I carried
stayed close to in my life
If I wrote a chapter
of my friendships
in honesty it would probably be,
“catch and release”;
but there is pain in that reality
in that way of living
looking in the mirror
because each of them have informed
the me I am today
for a reason, for a season
has been the truth;
but I pray that, for some,
it will be my journey of life.
