You are the smile that lights me up every
second. Each memory, a dusting of happiness.
You are the warmth that seeps into me,
a small whisper of hope in my darkest days.
My eyes swim with each grin, each jape,
That had passed between us. Our days,
bright and shiny, in a sea of haze. I know,
I‘m not the best of friends, I know,
I can be the clam and crab at times.
But you my friend, you are the companion,
One hopes for, the perfect accomplice,
My masked wicked dreamed of.
A tear floats over spilling,
Running down my cheek. My heart,
Squeezes at your image, a mirage .
My heart no longer listens, so do these?
Wayward drops washing my eyes.
You know its crazy, why it cries
At your buck teeth or your color blind
Fashion and pig tails? I’d never know.  
But you knew. You knew it was hopeless,
You knew it ******. And, you stayed,
Whatsoever. You stayed to give us
The best of memories, you stayed to tell me,
I am here. So what if I’d forgotten.
You know, you are there in my thoughts,
Always. A diamond among pebbles,
You shine in my mind, always and ever.
