my best friend has left
he wandered far and wide to find a life he wanted
well, he found one.it's in the fringes of Europe.
he crossed the continent and then the atlantic ocean to follow his dreams
i have a hard time finding the courage to cross the street for mine.
i have a feeling i will be applying for a passport very soon
i have never before had a friend that i needed like this.
i thought i was in love with my highschool best friend
she was the brightest, most beautiful girl i'd ever met.
we were inseparable for years.
one day, though, she walked one way and i stayed put
we let go without really even saying goodbye.
i descended into my hell and
she moved to new york city to make her dreams come true.
they did.
in my time forging adult friendships,
no one has been so unsuitably matched for me than my best friend.
i am random and impulsive
he is anally preplanned to the extreme
i have a head full of trivia and useless info
he fully investigates everything that catches his attention until he qualifies as an expert
i am quietly laid back and rarely make a fuss
he will bitch about anything and then haggle over the discount
i am gentle and thoughtful most often and speak when i have something to say
he could talk to a plant for hours and a certain volume and bluntly
i drift slowly through my life for the most part but speed up in a crisis
he rushes though life and stops only to analyze the crises
but he is mine and i am his and i could love him more that i do
we take so little seriously
and try to compete with each other to see who can take it furthest into the repulsive and morally degraded humor
we both tell the people we love just what is on our minds
frequently
then apologize often for it!
there are some similarities,
but the best parts of our friendship are the differences
the things we give to each other
teach each other, learn from each other,
and the different views and opinions we bring to discussions.
i would cross the continent for to see him.
i would cross an ocean
i would cross teh whole world
honestly, i would cross galaxies to visit him.
it's pretty simple, he's my best friend and i love him.
(it doesn't hurt that he's in love with my favorite sexy little bitch!)
