We adventured
it cured
our hunger
for wanderlust
and put off soulful rust
it tested us
we saved one another
from weak moments
we trusted
and cared deeply
we treasured
Intimacy’s lullaby
who sang
until the sun slept
bedraggled
survival instincts
rustled in the trees
granting us tips for
tomorrow’s challenges
another opportunity
to conquer the wild child
of nature rough
walking in stride
brothers, we could confide
and feel the gentle ocean tide
lapping at our ankles
sea breeze brushed our hair
and for one another
we would forever-care

I love everything about this! :)
It has everything, deep emotions, brotherhood, an adventurous journey, and struggles, yet unity ✨😊
This has such a beautiful, adventurous spirit to it! The bond, the trust, the shared survival—it feels like a story of unbreakable friendship wrapped in poetry. That “intimacy’s lullaby” line? So soft yet powerful! ✨
Wow, It shows the spirit of adventure, brotherhood, and the deep bond forged through shared challenges. 🤝👏👏
