Best Sorely Poems
A short time ago God sent me a special gift, and it came in the design of you, my best friend
my confidant. You are very special to me and I wanted to let you know all the wonderful
memories that you gave to me and when I see you, it reminds of all the good times that we
have shared together. In this short time that we've have shared, we did so much together. It
only took just one reassuring nod of you head to me...and I knew it would all get better in
time, even when something looked even worse than it seemed to be. We have shared so
many good times and bad times together and I would not know where to began, if I want to
write it all down? But I can say this with great expectations and from the depth of my soul, I
do look forward to seeing you again sometime in the near future... and when that time does
come again, I will share a hearty laugh together with you and we will reminisce of the days
gone by and how much we did share together. Oh, what a special day that will be for me, as
two old friends share another smile together... once again. I do look forward to that day...but
until then my friend you will be sorely missed by me as I count down each second, each
minute and every hour with great expectation of the reunification of two old best friends once
again.

This work is a double tetractys with 10 lines in total.
Taken by the darkness, ravaged by the wild.
You lit up my whole world, the moment that you smiled.
I would "lie" to you all day, though only truth is spoken.
We could fall apart together, become whole with all our broken.
Marvel at your brilliant shimmer, all would dim without you.
Wish to dispel twisted reflections that you believe true.
If all that I could ever give, does only find your wake.

Enraptured, I this creature you've captured in loves descent.
Infatuated, I will rise to banish your lament.
