There will always be an ocean between Ally and I;
She always says something I will never understand,
And I nod along.
Because despite our efforts,
Our agreement in disagreement,
We will always try to hide the ocean in vain.

The author's comments:
This poem displays what friendship can actually be like sometimes. Although someone can always be there for you or you have fun together, sometimes things just don't feel quite right between you.
