If you think you have the bestfriend,
Mine's surely got you beat.
Even stand up for me and proudly he'd defend,
You still think your's is better, well can you take the heat?
He laughs at the jokes I make,
Even when they're not that funny.
He excepts the gifts I make,
And says i'm really funny.
I love to hear him sing,
And love to see him laugh.
And when I see him I get and sudden ping,
Of joy surging down my back.
You think you have the bestfriend,
Well I think I made my point.
That mine is surely better,
And your's just has no point.
True friends are there for you
until the end
Yall laugh and hang out
They love to just have fun and shout
Yall burst with excitement
over all that yall do
They love just being around you
They are with you
through thick and thin
You can trust them with all your sin
When your in trouble
and you need a hand
You can trust
that I’ll do whatever I can
Destiney:
So I was there,
you stupid girl,
Your lifes a wreck,
your world stands still.
I was your friend,
But guess what dear,
You now have found some better friends,
Yet still I'm waiting here.
I do not see why people don't,
see blessings when theyrein their face,
I guess they wont, i know they wont,
ever again feel my embrace.
Dana:
We have been through everything,
When youre alone, to you I'll sing,
We still are shaky, its okay,
we'll get through it all anyway.
It's been hard and its been tough,
but dear yew know were good enough,
and we know that It is tricky,
but well get out of all thats sticky.
Jasmine:
Oh my gosh we clicked so fast,
Its super cool, some peace at last.
We'll bead and watch so much tv,
Best friends you know we'll always be.
Yes were dumb, but we're still 'cool'
We act so wierd, we act a fool,
But guess what honey, I'm a freak,
I love to make things with beads;P
*I love you Dana and Jazz:) go screw yourself Destiny*
Jimmy, do you still drive the big truck
Across the ice laden roads
And swear magnificently at lady luck
When she breaks down with your loads
Of good-natured joy and faith
O you are such a child of insatiable desire
This strong defiance that mingles
With forest creatures like soul akin
This friendly poet of passion that spin
Sweet tales of his familiar places
The honor is mine to love such a friend
Roaming woods and yet to me unmet
Where every wilderness for you a garden
Of undiscovered righteousness
I love the barren, bleak landscapes
That figure your rage
Against the fuel of our discontent
Slavemasters and rip-off wage
I love the beauty of your constraint
How you paint that into words
How you chain that with your words
And then to gloat in childish wonder
At falling snowflakes and flying birds.
In this life
i feel the suffering
i understand your pain
and i know that
you love all you can
these feelings are here
you ache within
and try to care
but your heart it breaks
it hurts
it aches
everytime you say goodbye
trying to find yourself
day to day
learning to deal
with the way you feel
Let yourself breathe
and love
dont fall away
stay clear of the fire
try not to consume the flame
A man without a friend
Is a man without a heart,
A being without a heart
I'm yet to come across.
I've got a good one,
We were born together
Not a second apart,
Sticks to me like glue.
He falls when i fall,
He sins when i sin
And we rise together
Like man and day.
We love the same damsel,
We lose and win together,
We smile and whine together,
We make love together.
When the time is right,
We will kick the bucket together
And there will be no more of us
Oh!What a loyal friend
My partner to the end
My true companion
My best friend
My able shadow.
For My Most Dear Distant Friend Linda Marie & her Love Ron
Only excellent expressions,
Come on our lips,
To wish you a life,
Full of love and cheerfulness,
And may Joy come,
To stay with you,
And with your love,
As a gift of God
And Good wishes from us.
This is a very small Gift,
For Linda and Ron,
Not from me only
But from the entire
Poetry Soup.

On the subject of friends,
I have few to claim.
To clear the air,
friendship is the unconditional love of another human being by accepting them at thier worst
and enjoying them at thier best.
These people in my life are few,
but are held high above many others in this respect.
The times we enjoy together are the times that I know I will never forget.
Late night talks that end with sunrise are commonplace,
and so are those spent intoxicated and rowdy.
My dear friends,
I thank you very much.
I could not pick a more haphazardly thrown together crew,
and even as this is true,
we love each other and would not have anyone substitute the other.
No one could have ever given me so much support in my troubling times,
or could have celebrated my higher times in my short lived life.
So I leave these important few with words of thanks and high praise.
I love you all and let us GO HARD in everything we do, after all, we wouldn't expect anything
different from each other.
Just Untangled A Bit
You know I want to belong
I don’t know how strong
This love could carry on
But I am willing to stay
Taking it day by day
You may use me
Or try to confuse me
But I know my love
Is what I am thinking of
It may be very long
But I can’t wait here strong
You’ve got to understand
That I am here to give you a hand
Just untangled a bit
We can make this love a hit
Just hold yourself close to me
Then you will soon see
My love is very much you
My love is very much true
So just untangled a bit
Hold me and please don’t forget
Babe my love this is it
You and I are a hit
Now we are alone
A quiet at home
Darkness of fire and candles
I touch your hair no more tangles
Just untangled a bit
And we can make this love a hit

Through my eyes, i've lost you as a friend.
Although we promised on forever, I knew eventually we'd have to end.
I used to know you like the back of my mind,
But lately i'm not so sure.
You know you used to be my hero?
You used to be my savior.
Now you just tear me down with every little stare.
And as i search for you, you are no longer there.
Lost in a sea of confusion.
Why oh why, did i let myself fall for this lovely delusion?
Picture you and i, walking hand in hand.
But you've become someone so different.
Someone i no longer understand.
So sit there and let the addictions consume you.
Nothing else matters, right? It's the only thing you know how to do.
I'm done trying to help, because to you it doesn't matter.
It's like you find amusement, in watching our friendship shatter.
I love you, but the only thing you love is the high.
You're living out your life based on a lie,
And i'm done.
Through my eyes, this is goodbye.
You drew our names from your deep past
I've never questioned why you did so.
From God, a burden, for you was cast
And absented years caused it to grow.
God allowed me to view your life's change
How you'd matured from sand to pearl.
In faith, I'd believed, so it wasn't strange
That when I saw you, you'd remained that girl.
He wanted us to meet your life changing love
The man I'd prayed for, lo all those years.
He came when you were ready from God above
You shared this with me through a veil of tears.
As our dear friend you've been ultra kind
And we love the heart within your chest.
Our relationship needed no cords to bind
God's love secures our friendship best.
We love you S
Kirsten
Kirsten has really pretty eyes,
She's loving, caring, and she never lies.
She helps me whenever I'm lonely or sad,
She doesn't like when boy's are bad.
Cuz she's a nice person and loves Jesus,
And anyone would help her if she ever sneezes.
Her best friend's name is Kath,
My love for her is taking a wrath.
Whenever she's awake, the sun will rise.
She's really cute, and has many natural highs :) (inside joke)
She's really smart in so many ways,
With her in your life, you'll have brighter days.
So give her a chance in your
miserable lives.
Cuz you'll love and miss her whenever
she dies.
But her smiles will never die, but live
forever.
Giving her up will make your
Heart Sever.

You love your god,
I love the goddess,
Why does this have to come between us?
You say there’s one right,
And the rest are wrong,
You think this means I don’t belong?
I haven’t changed,
I just lied,
And every time I did, I cried
You’re my best friend
I want you to understand
This is who I really am
You know that we fought
Let us stop on the spot
We have always been friends
A friends love never ends
You know that it’s true
That I am friends with you
Let us keep this together
Through the toughest of weather
I am baring my heart
Cause I know it is smart
To keep you my friend
From a love with no end
Would you love me the same
And get rid of this game
Just come give me a hug
Don’t walk away with a shrug
I would let you go
But I want you to know
There is no-one to blame
So do not feel shame
B ecause you're so B-eautiful and wonderful. Both inside and out!
E ven though we're apart E-ach day, we're together in heart and still very close.
S weet, yes you are, S-weet as sugar.
T ime, you give me your T-ime, your undivided attention.
F reely you love me. F-reely I love you.
R easonable in all matters R-egarding each other.
I n everything be true, I-n your mentality and physicality.
E verything honest between E-ach one of you.
N o misunderstandings to N-egate you from each other.
D oing your best to D-o your best with each other.
S oulmates and S-haring!!!
