I would like to say
He had me at hello
But he never actually said that
He spoke to me
For the first time
As though we had been friends for ages

There was not a second
Where I feared his newness
As I had with all my other friends

He spoke to me for a few minutes
Before the bell rang
And I was sad to see him go

Yet there he was
In my French class
And so we had more time to grow closer

I knew him for a few months
Before I realized rather suddenly
I liked him more than I liked any other

I knew him for a year
Before I told him about these feelings
And I was let down gently as possible

I have known him for two years
And I would not change a single thing
About our Moirallegiance

I do not call it a friendship
Because it isn't one
Moirallegiance means more than that

He keeps me grounded
He keeps my emotions in check
Even now when he is so far away

He says the wrong thing sometimes
He never asks how I am
After I ask how he's doing
But that's okay with me
Because I know when I need him
He’ll be right there
