Best Friend Poems

Premium Membermy best friend Joe

my best friend knows my stories, has my back, laughs with me
He and I share two dogs, they are our babies, Maxie and Maddy
We are silly enough to call ourselves their mommy and daddy
Been together for fifty-seven years, my best friend and me

My best friend misses me when I am gone, which is a rarity.
We

Afterglow

We are light and noise when we are together,
A world of shared laughter, forgetting the weather.
Your presence is sunlight, a warm, golden glow,
Where the smiles on our faces have nowhere to go.

The jokes and the stories, the carefree embrace,
Leave no room for shadows or sorrow to trace.
For hours, we exist in a bright, vivid hue,
Two

Stronger Together

We have a bond that makes us strong
A bond inseparable, no matter how long
We’ve made our allies, we hold them dear
In laughter, in tears, we conquer the feared

No plans to leave the shining stars
Never to enter the shadowing dark
Together we flourish, together we stand
Embracing the twists, our paths unplanned

We share our dreams, like whispers in

Premium MemberFrom the high grove to Portland

The world outside is vast and bright,
Soaring buildings and lakes so grand,
But its high groves fade from sight,
In the moments I just hold your hand

A simple touch, a glance you hold,
Shifting in the air that stops time,
Turning ash and grey to molten gold,
Like lightning singing to you in this rhyme

Do you feel it softly, tingling

Premium MemberBy Your Bedside

I am dying to be by you, at your bedside
Mon amour, I yearn every second to be by your side
To soothe the pain, to give you a good massage
To mesmerize you and to send the right message
To your body, to your soul and to your enduring heart
Darling, going forward, you and I should never be

Why did we stop talking?

How… how did it get like this?
Why… did we stop talking?
After a time… I stopped trying.
You… you… you were very tired to try.
No one did.

And… a friendship… that… no one acknowledged, but we acknowledged—
now doesn’t exist.
Exists… but…
I’m not the same person you talk to.

It was not love.
It was attachment to a person.
That laugh… that conversation…

Mary Magdalene

The first time I saw her
in the forgotten halls of the East,
the stars whispered her name—
Magdalene.
My soul trembled,
for I knew she was the lost thread
of my eternal garment,
woven not of earth,
but of Andromeda’s fire.

Her eyes remembered.
Her smile healed.
She turned and called me—
Christos, I have been searching for you.

Slow as dawn,
she moved toward me,
and in silence

we can play pretend

i feel so stupid 
i actually believed you loved me
i believed every lie
how could i know it wasn't true?
it all seemed so real
the smiles, the laughs
every time you were there for me
how much of it was fake?
i forget you're an actor
and you're really good at it too
you can easily play any role you're given
it makes

If you are looking for me..Its a lost cause i say
I seem to grow more distant and different day by day.' I
Once held ideals and ideas of what man I
Should be..Then Jesus came up cliose to be in front'
And I don't care now..For what once I prized
In truth it was but irrelevance, in deceptive guise.'

a scrawny piece of fluff
who pissed in the passage 
not knowing whether you were 
dog or baby boy
we rushed for a mop
               your antibiotics were counted in

Premium MemberOde to the Feline Companions

From memory's gentle and sun-drenched haze,
A tapestry woven of cat-filled days.
They prowl through the heart, a paw print each one,
Leaving love in their wake when their time here is done.

First, JakJak, a strange and wonderful cat,
A creamy striped tabby, a lovable brat.
So full of affection, a quirky sweet soul,
Making all of us laugh and making
