Best Friend (Happy Birthday Thalia!)

It's been three years now 
Yet we've traveled thousands of miles along this road together 
We're two travelers on one path 
Not even the journey through cancer could separate us 

Even though that journey was painful 
We reached the top stronger than before 
Through all the days 
You were in the hospital 
Through all the days 
I'd stop by your house to check on you 
We faced the climb with resilience 
And continued on our way through the summits 

Without you, I'd be at rock bottom 
You came into my life 
And helped me reach the top 

Now you're my best friend 
Though there will be many more mountains to come 
That will never change 

No matter how many mountains will stand in our way 
You'll always be my best friend till the end of our journey.

  • Our Story

    Our story always ends the same

    No matter how many pages I turn

     

    In the end

    I’m the friend in need

    And you’re the main character, always having to help me

     

    I try to rip the pages out

  • Poem 260

    I saw you today

    For the first time in months

    It feels like I haven’t seen you in ages

     

    I used to hope

    We stayed apart

    Never faltering too close to one another

    But as I look into your eyes

  • Yours Again

    When I looked into your eyes

    The memories came in waves

    Drowning out all our flaws

     

    For a moment

    I forgot my resentment

    And became yours again.
