Best Day Ever

You made me smile and laugh through
My hazy tears during our freshman
Year of college. With you it was a new
Day, sharing our hopes, future plans,
Fears and dreams. It was the best day.
When I would meet you, becoming fast
Friends. You were always a strong ray
Of sunshine when I could not get past
My homesickness. You were the rose
To my thorn. In the vast and deep sea
You are the anchor. When life slows
You never doubted or gave up on me,
Always being there for the long ride.
Even in all our silliest and serious
Moments you remained by my side.
In this world we are still mysterious
Wonders, but never did I fear that our
Friendship would waver or disappear
Because it only became like a flower
And its sturdy stem, making life clear.
