Best Friend

the first time time I met you 

I knew it would be

the most wonderful time 

for just you and me

you were my best friend

my sun and my moon

at the end of a phone call 

you'd say "see you soon!"

I remember your birthday 

so well in my mind

you opened that box

to see just in time

that confetti went flying 

around through the air

to me it looked like a miniature fair

you told us the secret

though it was supposed to be a surprise

a limo your mom got

what a glorious prize

Remember last summer

all the time that were spent

falling over with laughter

oh what that meant

we would hide in the trees

then jump out in the street

wondering who it would be

at that time we would meet

your mom would call us over

and give us the blame

and all we would tell her is

we were trying to scare James

After the summer 

we were still very close

we would hang out on weekends

and eat buttered toast

once I remember

chillin' at the mall

we saw a group of people

who weren't very small

you leapt up with a flash

so I followed behind

these guys we were following

you said they were fine

then your birthday came around very fast

I went to your party

and had such a blast

we put makeup on Eli

then he put on a dress

it was too funny

but he looked like a mess

we sang karaoke 

now that was the best

we formed a small squirkel 

I know I can't say

I made you that promise

and i will keep it that way

I have made you laugh

I have made you cry

I made have even said goodbye

What I know to this day

will always be true

that you will be my friend

no matter what we go through

I ask for this chance

to do over again

to be a better person

to show you who I am

but if you believe that this is too much

please never forget me

or I will be crushed

Damn . . . that's got to be one of the best expressions of undying love I've ever heard (or read)
