Me and My Best Friend

 

Zuleika Rivera

 

My best friend is always there when I need him.
He's there when I cry.
He's here when my soul feels weak.
He's always there to make my heart pound a thousand beats.
He brings joy to my eyes.
If my eyes can shut and not open from this wonderful dream, I hope not to wake, as me and my best friend share hugs and kisses, laughs that last and last.
As I finally wake, my eyes fluted with angry tears, Where is he?
He's gone my heart and soul, my love, my best friend.
Shutting my eyes as tight as I can,
Please, just for a moment bring me back my strength, As I cry my heart back to sleep, I'm in peace, Me and my best friend together again.
