A Friend for Life

Wrote this when my friend got a concussion and began to lose her memory. To her.

Hey friend,

Heard you fell today,

Down the high school stairs,

Hitting your head.

You know, you shouldn't do that.

You should know better than to

trip and fall,

But some of our best memories

Are from those moments.

Hi pal,

Just wanted to say

I miss you.

I miss seeing you

and remembering everything we did.

I miss our sleepovers,

Our camping trips,

Our time together. 

Though you may not remember,

But you are my best friend.

Hello buddy,

Wish you could be here now,

But you're in bed,

Sleeping the days away.

I wish I could be there with you,

To comfort you

When you wake up,

terrified,

that you don't have any friends.

I'm always here.

Hola mi amiga,

Hope you remember all the 

Good times we've had.

Whiskeytown,

Ren and Stimpy,

Facebook photo tagging wars,

Girl Scout camps,

Movies.

All those memories.

I've not forgotten.

 

Greetings, bud.

I saw you again today,

You showed emotion

And, though you were sad,

I sighed relief

Because emotion is necessary

For recovery.

Though you tried to banish me,

I stayed,

Never to leave your side.

Nor will I ever.

To my dearest friend,

I pray for you,

Everyday.

And will keep praying 

Until you're well again.

Don't forget me, 

For you are my life,

my love,

my one and only.

We are each other's

Anchors in our

storms of life.

Life is too short

To not care.

Life is too short

To keep thinking

That people don't

Care about you.

Because I do,

And always will.

Semper fidelis.
