My Best Friend

To those that know, true love is something that slowly grows. We don’t always know until it decides its time for it show. We met so long ago, when we were kids, curly; messy hair and bags filled with books for years. I knew then you’d always be my friend. We laughed and cried but we never said “goodbye.” The years weren’t kind to you nor I. But when I cried I always had you by my side. The distance between us always grew, and even when Spring faded and the leaves fell to the earth, the seasons never stopped changing but you always remained true. When we spoke I was never blue, my heart bursted with joy, at the pure sound of your voice. The darkness turned into light, for I knew you’d never leave my side. The years faded bye but we never said “goodbye”. I was hurt and left with a bundle all alone. Yet you never let my heart turn into stone. Our friendship stayed true for I knew I could always count on you. And now we’re adults and the world seems anew, for now I’m yours and forever we will be true. For we’ve made a promise to love each other in this life and the next. For now I’m becoming your wife and that something that makes me very blessed. For we started out as little kids so innocent and sweet but our friendship then was always meant to be. For you are my soulmate and I know that now. So to my best friend, I love you and that’s something that has always been. Thank you for loving me, for you make my heart feel like a roaring sea. So In this life and the next, my best friend, to you I will forever and always be true. 

I love you.
