Smiling Through Tears

Just yesterday
we were playing video games
and you played a prank on me
making my hair red

so tight together
best buds forever
I guess life didn't think so
but I'll never forget

when you made me laugh
when you made me mad
I'll cherish it all
even though it's the past

smiling as tears roll down
barely believing that you're no longer around
every loving memory
keeps me staying strong

but soon, my dear friend
I'll be with you again
and that distant reminiscence
would soon be long gone
