Ode to my Bestie
This one goes out to the only one who didn’t ghost me after I quit cheer
This one goes out to the only person who really knows what happened
The only one who said “I’m here for you” and was sincere
She’s amazing in every way you could imagine
“I love you super super duper much”
People ask me my best friend
Well, true friends are usually those who offer you support, improve your quality of life, and help you progress mentally.
Looking at the big picture, in the end
She may just be
My best friend
“Have a great rest of your day”
Late-night phone calls
Dissing each other in every way possible
To the one who always laughs when I fall
“If you ever need to talk always call”
Leaving notes in my notebook
Knowing I probably won't look at them again
But I do
“Text me or whatever make sure you always call me”
Assuring me just how much you love me
And making sure I know the world would be different if I leave
“If you are sad call or something because you can’t ever ever ever leave me”
People say you are audacious, blunt, or disrespectful
But really they just can’t handle the truth
Sure you may be judgmental
But It’s always constructive
“I need you through this kinda dumb world”
The one who I can always laugh with
Who may always laugh at me
But still puts up with me
Not just tolerate
"I love you"
note* I took a note she left me and I ended each stanza with a line that she wrote
