Best Friend.

I might never know how it feels, if you're not here in my life.

When you step into my life
I never expect this to happen.
When we become friends
My whole if is change.
When we have arguments
We used to walk away from each other.
When we separated apart
We realize how much we miss what we used to do.
When we haven't met for few years
There's still a day that we'll come back and hug again
When you're crying
I'm there to wipe your tears .
When I fall down so deep to the earth
You're there holding my hand and walk around.
You said you don't have anything special for me
And I never say I want that.
Remember that I always be there beside you because....
This might be our destiny.

This is a very touching poem. Very honest and relatable in terms of the experiences of friendship - there are painful parts, fun parts, confusing parts, and uplifting parts, and all of it makes us human and makes us love each other for who we are. I love the lines "You said you don't have anything special for me / And I never say I want that." They are a beautiful expression of the true meaning of being someone's friend. Thank you for sharing this sweet, lovely work. Nicely written!

There's a great play with tenses here.
What I mean is that some lines take place in the present, in present progressive. Something that is taking place right now, and is implied to continue, such as the line
''When we become friends.'' Now, naturally, you'd expect it to be 'When we became friends', yet somehow this is more potent and powerful. Same with when you wrote ''I never expect this to happen' implying something that happens on a regular basis.

When you finally do shift to past tense it seems as though the transition is smooth and impactful,
''We used to walk away from each other''
You paint the negatives in single, past tenses , while you do the positive parts in present progressive, implying continuation and mutual benefits and affection.

Great job. I enjoyed it.
