My bestest friend

You were my bestest friend
Always there with a hand to lend
Together we laughed, together we cried
From each other we'd never hide

You were there with my first love
I swear your patience was from above
As about him I talk and talk
Never once did away you walk

I was there with your first crush
I never ever told you to hush
As on and on you'd be yappin'
About every little thing that happened.

Crying and laughing away the night
Even after we had to turn out the light
We'd talk and talk all night long.
Sometimes even break into song

You know my deep, dark secret,
My one and only childhood regret.
I came to you and cried that day
Do you remember that night last May?

I told you something no one else knew
Since then I've told Em too.
But back then you were the only one
That I trusted enough to tell what I've done.

Now I wish I hadn't told
I wish I hadn't of been so bold
Inside my heart I wish it had stuck
Cause now that your gone, I'm out of luck.

Don't you remember those study halls?
Crying from your parent's phone calls?
I was there, on my shoulder you did lean,
I felt tears no one else had even seen

I remember those times we laughed so loud
I swear you could hear us from the clouds!!
Reena came in to tell us to be more quiet
Which usually lead to an even bigger laughing riot.

Dish Soap, Baby Powder, Shaving Cream
So far away the memories seem.
Your poetry, my stories, our sitcom
Our writing projects that always bombed.

We never got much sleep,
but secrets we did share and keep
We never did much homework
Bad grades did lerk.

But with all the good and bad
I'd never trade all the times we had
Though they bring tears,
I will never forget this past year.

That's how things used to be
I miss it, don't you see?
I was closer to you than anyone before.
Then, all of a sudden, away you tore.

When you decided to go to Andrews
Not realizing it was me you'd loose.
Now heart-broken, with no one to mend
For when you left, I lost my bestest friend.
