Entering a classroom, nerves evident, fiddling with my hair,
Lo and behold, look where I sat- next to another little girl with a wide smile.
Our first conversation started bumpy,
but looking back now, the road has been the most beautiful of ongoing journeys.
What started as two small girls in glittered shoes and dresses wide,
hands sticky with birthday cakes, loud laughter hard to hide,
We danced through the years, madly so on the dance floor,
Two hearts learning what friendship could mean.
As the years rolled on, so did we,
becoming two individuals who went from a childhood spark,
to certainty.
Different styles, silly jokes, unfiltered personality,
being each other's safe place.
Ten long years, almost eleven now,
an unspoken promise, an unwritten vow.
Thoughts maturing, jokes even sillier,
same old us, just grown by chance.
You've seen my quiet, my chaos too,
not telling anyone, but telling just you,
not just a 'friend' to me, but home too,
My constant, my bestfriend for always.
If time asks us how far we'll go,
I'll smile brightly and say, "You already know".
From little girls to whom we've known our whole life,
bestfriends forever, no matter when, no matter how far.
