The Drop Zone

The Drop Zone

Many times you saw me
with my hair astray and
tears sparkling in my eyes,
yet you always kept our secret.

You were always there
to lean on
when I needed you most
and always listened as
I cussed and swore that I
would NEVER do this again.
And not once did you lecture me
when yet again ... I lied to you.

You never complained when
I spilled that margarita
on your lap, nor fussed
when I left my last
jello shooter on your seat.

Oh we had many good times
my friend,
though sadly you have only seen
the worst parts of me.

Yet like a true friend
you kept our secrets
in "the little girls room"
to yourself, never lectured
nor complained,
and flushed away every bit of
evidence of our wild crazy nights
with a flick of the finger.

My dear porcelain buddy
even though I am all grown up now
I will never forget those days
we spent together ...

hugging

    Awww this was actually an adorable piece to me. It made me think of my best friend and all the times we've had each others backs at the weakest parts of our lives. I really like that you just ended this poem with one word. Very catchy to me.
    you did great with this!!
