He's My Friend...D****t!!

A intimate look at persons who have been friends for a very..very long time.

 

Random phone call

Exactly twelve thirty

Whatchu doin’?

Was his only wording

 

Getting’ lunch…

Sup with you?

My reply is standard

This we always do

 

I’m a block away

Wait up for me..

I’m like, what? For real?

You gots to be kidding??

 

See, dude lives far

Haven’t seen him in a year

We always make plans

But truly get nowhere

 

Thank God it’s Friday

And I look extra nice

Checked hair and makeup

Paid for my chicken and rice

 

Then I recall as..

Eyes touch his face

He cares not how I look

It’s about sharing same space

 

Wraps his arms around me

Hug purporting me to heaven

See, he is six foot six..

To my “average” five foot seven

 

Places me back down

Proceeding to go wild

“I’ve found my cousin Numpsy!!”

Distorted lines from “The golden child”

 

I back away embarrassed

But laughing all the same

I truly missed big head

I forgot he’s a little crazed

Said quick goodbyes

Vowing to meet up later

I’m in a great mood now

Speaking to strangers on the elevator

 

Needless for me to say

What a great time we had

Walking the streets of Times Square

Even played some laser tag

 

Time for dinner and drinks

The night was laughter’s bliss

In the middle of playful bickering

He reached down to steal a kiss

 

Caught by surprise!!

Did you just.. Oh My..hmm Oh My!!

This moment’s perspective changed

I am feeling my friend, why lie?

 

Headed for his car

Hugging waists, it starts to rain

We turn and laugh with each other

While sizing up lips to claim

 

Backed into a stage door

Cool of water mixes with heat

Can’t get closer so squirming

For that ultimate confection of sweet

 

Hands explore with familiarity

Although we pose as friends

Every time we have the chance

The love affair begins again

 

But…in the end

 

He is Still My Friend…

 

D****t!!!

I really enjoyed this poem. When youre friends that long and become that familiar with someone of the opposite sex, lines can be blurred. This made me smile!

:) oh it is good to see that women go through this friendship ladder thing as well as men. This was a good look at how it feels to like someone who is a friend and your constantly reminded of that fact. I was smiling all the way through this one. Very nice write it was like being able to hear her intimate thoughts.

This is great! It shows what a confusing situation it is. Are you friends, are you more? Probably just friends, but maybe...Ha! I thought it was a wonderful story you told and I loved the ending. It brought a smile to my face.
