Bambi Eyes

by Kristina Harris - Aries

My friend, with beauty..
too perfect to be shallow..
Her dark eyes pierce into
the hearts of many..
and her laughter ignites
the child in mine.

We laughed together
so many days...
In our "younger years"
that seemed like yesterday..
She taught me the meaning
of laughter..
and the meaning of true
friendship..
I could tell her anything.
and she would never desert me,
never think I'm weird,
or insane..
never even think of me as
anything more than a friend.

Now, we lead different lives,
with different goals,
and different...everything.
I miss my Bambie eyes,
I miss her laughter..
I miss her zaniness,
and the way she could make
me smile,
I miss the feeling of having 
a best friend..

We'll keep in touch, that I know,
but it will never be the same
as the days with careless youth
at our side, wind stinging our faces,
music filling our heads with
carelessness as we drove..
no particular place to go..
just away...until curfew
snuck up on us anyway..

And as we move into our own lives,
may she always be a phone call away,,
her laughter and her tears,
always mingling with mine..
and our friendship strong and solid,
to the end.

Reason for writing:

    For the best friend I ever had.
