Dear, Best Friend

Dear, Best Friend Oh how I miss your precious face Oh how I long to invade your personal space Without you I feel so lost and out of place Long overdue is your warm embrace No one gets me the way you do They never will because they're not you I know you can feel it too Nothing trumps a friend this true Your presence I pine to grace Lingering are memories no one can take or erase Our souls are intertwined with the strongest of lace If I haven't told you lately "I love you" just in case They don't know the things we've been through No, they haven't a single solitary clue Our bond neither time nor distance could unglue No one could come close to filling your shoes My zesty, comforting, tasteful soul food At my best or worst, can handle me in any given mood When you're near I quickly change and check my attitude For you, I'll always hold the utmost respect and gratitude
