Best Friends

 

By KeanuMoreira

 

A best friend is someone you know better than the back of your hand, like that little voice in your head, they guide you through life’s most challenging trials. A person who takes time out of their day to catch a popsicle with you, lay down on the grass, and watch the summer clouds go by, similarly pointing out the constellation of the night sky on the dew chilled evening, the sight as bright as their hearts. That special someone will be there in the hardest of rainstorms, soaking wet, to lend a hand and a shoulder to their bestest bud, the silent bond in that one moment strong enough to lift this darkest veil. Through these tears, a love is forged, a bond so unbreakable that their life upon the other is dedicated until the last undying breath is taken, and even then, not even death can separate them. Their time together is more valuable than a million years worth of knowledge, a million years worth of living, because to us, they are what life is worth living, they are what make us who we truly are, what we can truly be, and what we can stand for, do, accomplish, and thrive to be. This one person alone brings out the best in us, makes us run faster, and makes us work faster, believe in more, and struggle to improve beyond our most confined of limits, which, with their help, is only the end of time itself. There is no limit to what they can do together, because together they can move mountains, destroy old laws, and rewrite the boundaries of their playground. There is no one in the world that can compare to a love so close, a love that words alone are impossible to describe, and if we tried, we’d only end up going on forever. There is no one word to describe it but this impossibility, as nothing is close enough to even go near it, but not as close as that bond to begin with. We will be together forever, inseparable, the best alike and nothing more alike, no clone or creation that can state the same thing or be the same thing. We are…best friends.

 

Dedicated to the greatest friend I’ve ever had. Every morning, when I wake up, I think about the time we’ve spent together for as long as we have. You and you alone have made my life what it is, as happy as it can be and nothing greater. What we share is completely impossible to define, but I know very well what a wonderful thing it must be. I enjoy our company together each and every day, from sunrise to sunset, from now until I die, and there is perhaps no one else I would rather say it to. TheSwedishPancake, you are my Best friend, and I want everyone to know it. I’m not afraid to say it, and I’m not afraid to admit it. They may laugh, snicker, point, and tease, but who else can say that what we have is just as equal? I’ve never met anyone as kind, forgiving, sweet, frightening, and amazing as you, EVER. You mean the world to me and I’m just so happy to have you here. This is but a small token of what I can give you and I promise you, you deserve all of it, right down to the last word, and just can't ever explain to you what you mean to me. To best friends, may we always thrive together.

**holds up a mirror** Right back to you, every word of it. You deserve it just as much as anyone else. You described yourself and what you have done for me in this, and the only thing I can think of to do is to show you what you've done too.

 

That's truly the only way I can respond to this, other than... thank you, Keanumoreira. For everything.

You're welcome, and I hope in time that I can live up to the promise I've made.
