To My Bestest Of All Friends Poem by Christina de Vries

All those years ago we walked
Hand in hand we talked and talked
With no real worries in our heart
We were certain we would never be apart
Because best friends never leave for good
This we certainly understood

Years went by and we both grew
I was I and you were you
Sharing smiles and sharing tears
Over dreams and hopes and doubts and fears
Growing up is complicated
And everything didn’t turn out quite as expected

Birthdays came and years they went
Hugs were given and letters were sent
Our friendship grew
As time it flew
A little older and somewhat wiser here we are
Both of our journeys taken us this far

But we have lots of miles ahead
Lots of hours to never leave anything unsaid
Time to still walk hand in hand
As we fly high and when we crash land
Here for each other through thick and thin
For when we lose and when we win
However, wherever, whenever
I will be your best friend forever
My greatest wish that is for you
Is for all of your dreams to come true
I am here to the very end
To always wish you happy birthday my gorgeous best friend!
