My Best Friend
Protector
Confidant
Secret keeper
You stole my heart
and made
everything right in the world
From putting you in strollers
to dressing you in clothes
You never complained
Your beautiful eyes
stared at me
A promise to love me
always
Cheeky monkey
Companion
Comforter
Bed hog
You we’re my love
My heartbeat
My best friend

Our last summertime carnival
She’s my best friend
We’ve grown up together
She knows everything about me
Every secret, every fear
and every dream I’m afraid to share
She’s the sister I always wanted
Next week we leave for college
and will be separated by 3000 miles
But today we’re making memories
Getting friendship tattoos
Riding roller coasters
Screaming on the Ferris wheel
and eating our favorite orange Creamsicle’s
I’m going to miss her
but these memories
will stay with me forever
She’s my best friend
and I know everything about her
every secret, every fear
and every dream she’s afraid to share
She’s the sister I always wanted
