You were the best friend
I have ever known.
But you are gone now
and I’m all alone.
--
I went on a trip.
You got sick and died.
Now I sit at home.
I can’t stay dry-eyed.
--
I was your Laurel.
You were my Hardy.
Neither of us were
the life of the party.
--
We were opposite
but we fit together.
I thought we’d be friends
Forever and ever.
--
The news of your death
hit me pretty hard.
To tell you the truth.
It caught me off guard.
--
Through reincarnation
I think we will be
friends in our next life.
Just you wait and see.
--
We were too perfect
to not meet again.
Maybe in Paris
or perhaps in Spain.
--
One thing I do know.
Until my very end.
You will always be
my bestest best friend.

Howdy y’all. It’s me, ninong7 aka UJ aka John. Just a short intro about myself. I am a Texan that has retired in the Philippines. I moved to the Philippines with my wife back in May 2010. I am retired from the US Air Force. The music I like is mostly Classic Country and Classic Rock. I guess you could say that I am “Classic”. I play dominoes when I can find someone that will play, I play chess, cribbage, spades, hearts, Empire Builder, Rail Baron, Acquire and a few other games. I like to write poems and stories (although pretty novice) and I love learning about history, just about any history. I’m at home on my computer a lot but if I could afford to, I’d be traveling and documenting my travels to post in my blog. I hope to get to know a lot of you through PeakD and Discord.
