Best Friend
Dear Best Friend,
Have I ever thanked you truly? Do you know what you are to me?
Well, you are
An extremely kind person,
Complimenting my art
All my work
Even when I think it’s horrible
Especially when I think it’s horrible.
A funny person as well
You amuse me in class
Sleepovers, whenever
Collapsing and shaking with laughter
Over a shared inside joke
A generous person, too
Giving me gifts on my birthday
And Christmas
And just because
Despite me not having anything for you
I should’ve had something for you
A creative person
I would say you think outside of the box
Except for the fact that for you
There never was any box
Artistic, craft-minded, crazy
A weird person
Always getting distracted with ADD
Dragging me into fandoms and obsessing over bands
Always trying to get me involved
Well, it’s working
Sometimes you irritate me
Sometimes I annoy you
Always we annoy other people
Thing One and Thing Two
You were always be there for me
Will always still be there
A safe house in a storm
And we both know
That we can’t be apart for long
Two peas in a pod
Best friends
Forever.
