Best Friend

2 November 2019  7:32 AM

Swallowing snot and hawking luggies
Weekend sleepovers and late night movies

Riding bikes and popping wheelies
Telling jokes and acting silly

Throwing knives and taking dares
Living life without a care

Just two boys wild and clever
Running the mountain having the best day ever

Who knew their lives would change so fast
In the valley that day childhood would pass

We both changed that day and our lives grew apart
All because of something that we did not start

We were still friends because we cared 
but the brotherhood we had we no longer shared

We had our travels some together but most apart
And now many years later and miles away I still live those days in my heart

The good times and bad, the fights and laughter
The years of life roll faster and faster

Our freindship lives on though tattered and torn
Since the fifth grade when it was born

You were my first best friend my only best friend
And you always will be until the end
