Playful,
Strong
Bond
Between two people
best friends
they said

And time passed
They loved every flaw
about each other.
They knew each other
Like the back of their hands
best friends
They said

Slowly
He fell
She fell
And they both knew that
They were slowly falling in love
best friends
They said

He didn't wanna give it a chance
She was up for it
He was afraid
Of losing her and their bond
She knew nothing was permanent
best friends
They said.

Until she gave up
And he did too
Their friendship crumbled
To pieces
Without them even knowing


best friends
They said.

You've been there for me
since the start of junior high
You've watched me as I smiled
and you comforted me when I cried.

You write better than I do,
your poetry soft and quaint
You draw with such lovely style
whether it be pencil, marker, paint.

I used to hate you touching me
but now I find I crave it.
I love the way I feel about you
although I don't understand it.

I devour each one of your poems,
love that simple poetry
so perhaps you'll try to think it's fine
when I pretend they're all written for me.

Friends since elementary school
Stuck with me even when I acted like a fool
A soccer star
Beat me in every scrimmage by far
I went to hra
Our friendship turned to grey

Two years pass apart
I figure he had no room left for me in his heart
I miss that laugh and smile
But then I see him at legacy practice and he says "it's been a while"

That night he's in my dreams
We dance forever it seems
I wake up all cheery and glee
I find out that next day, he had dreamed of me
Sister-Sister
We flirt with each other; friendship skin-tight like two peas in a pod.

Sister hood extremely remarkable we deal with one another.
Good days & bad days we are close to each other.

Best friends since day one our love has grown alot; I'd say like Louise and Thelmas' unconditional love.

Cinnamon to my favorite pop tarts
Words to my favorite fiction books, but; most importantly the sunlight to my darkest afternoons.

Dull moments are never; craziness and adventure is everywhere
From lows to highs you stick by my side
I wouldn't think of being anywhere else but right by your side.

Something for my partner in crime.

The first time I saw you, you we were 18 years old and you were in jean shorts
You said I had cool hair and we agreed to start a band.
I thought you were so hyper and that we could never have a sustaining friendship.
But life's funny like that

You told me of your dad
Your hyperness; My sombreness
Our delicateness; Our humaness
We are girls too big for this world

And the thing is:
we didn't start a band
but as we go through life we'll always have each other's hands
Because we're scared as hell
And you might have forgotten all the things you used to love
But I'll be there to remind you as we're growing up

I'm too scared to speak up and do something,
No matter how much I want to apologize,
And try to mend what I ****** up.
It's easier to just be on my own and stick to myself,
Then to trust myself to be a good friend,
Because honestly, I don't think I am.

Same song, different verse
History always repeats itself.
Just give up and leave me alone
I'm not worth your help
There's this thick border that separates you from them
but I can never explain what it is
all I can say is that I feel it inside of my heart that
you stand out from the rest
and for me you are the best!

It doesn't have to blood
When even blood goes to rot.
It doesn't have to be close,
Since things burn and go sour faster.
IT doesn't have to be clear in face
Because humans bond deeper.
All it really takes are the fibers of connection:
Magic, it makes wonders;
Respect, spirits that co-exist;
And love, where its strength holds it: Unbreakable.

This is the song of Sisters.

We protect this bond to go out
And discover the New World.
We are silken, woven threads in a tapestry.
We tell our own story.

This is the song of Sisters.

Almost soulmates and with our dreams,
We huddle for warmth against the Judgement.

This is the song of Sisters.

Because sometimes things don’t work out like they should
and people get hurt and
even when you didn’t mean it,
they walk away and you’re left by yourself
dealing with your demons and wishing they were around to tell you everything was going to be alright.


And sometimes apologies don’t change anything.
You act like things are going to get better between y'all
but the days turn into weeks and then months
and before you know it your birthday passes
without so much as a happy birthday text.


Sometimes they find someone who is more important to them than you were
and it doesn’t matter how many times you swore
you would be friends forever, you aren’t.
Even when you have no where else to turn, they aren’t there.
They say they are, but the advice they give is no longer what you need to hear,
but what they think you want to hear.


Maybe every friendship has an expiration date
or maybe I was just a foolish young girl who didn’t think about her actions
or maybe this is just how it was meant to be,
but that doesn’t make me miss you less,
it doesn’t make not talking to you easier,
time hasn’t helped yet,
I just keep hoping it does.

You really want to know what happened to me? What broke me?

I fell in love with my best friend.

I fell in love with him,
and despite the ample opportunities to tell him...
I was never brave enough.

His actions and words both showed me that he didn't see me that way
so I got scared.

He moved 1,490 miles away and I was too scared
to tell him how deeply that I loved him.

Him leaving left me with a void that I have been trying to fill since.
I eagerly tried replacing him and the emotion he gave me.

But no one has stuck around long enough to let me.

I had plenty of moments where I thought
"this could be it, I'm happy".

Happiness fades.

People stop putting in effort.
Nothing lasts forever.

So what happened to me?
I loved.
I trusted.
I lived.

So if I'm distant, pessimistic, cold-hearted, or lifeless..
there's a reason.

Stick around, you might see.
