“I knew I’d regret it if I didn’t say it now.”

You are my best friend,

(Quite obviously)

we both hate following trends,

and you’re always there for me.

I’d always regret the days

when we never spoke,

not a word, not a gaze.

Where syllables turned to smoke.

You know that we used to speak,

the last year we didn’t.

We rebuilt the streak

of talking, though. It’s evident.

You are my best friend,

I hope that’s what you like to hear.

I never want this to end

because you always know where to steer.

The smiles we shared,

the sleepovers past midnight.

The embarrassment we spared,

because it was just us those nights.

We’ve always been exciting

you with your jokes,

me with my writing.

We can never get the other coaxed.

You’re my best friend,

and I regret never telling you

that every minute we spend,

leads me to saying, you’ll never be in a queue.

You’re first place,

best friend.
