To my best friend...

I still remember that touch. How gentle you were against my skin, how you seemed to wash me with care, a sense of serenity. That look in your eyes, like you and I have always been something that no one can explain. Throughout the years, we've gone through our share of terrible times. We've gotten in fights, we never seem to agree, you could be with so many different people, and I could of lived such a different life....But yet somehow no matter what we always seem to come back to each other. Not so abusive as endearing. Not so physical as emotional. That look in your eyes. You don't ever have to tell me that you love me. I can just tell. I've really hurt you before. I haven't told you everything. I'm sure there are things that you won't ever confess. I know that you've broken my heart quite a few times. Yet, still you don't have to tell me...I just know. We come back to each other because you are my best friend, you are my first love, you understand, know, trust, love me more than anyone. We have so little time and the time we spend together is so fragile, so shaky. But when I look into your eyes, no matter what you say, no matter what you do, I know that you love me. The way your hands press gently against mine. The way your lips gently touch my skin. The way you smile at me. The way you know what I am going to say before I say it, or exactly how I am thinking. The way we can't stand each other sometimes, and the way we can't stand to hate each other. I wish every day was like it was today. Every moment I have left with you. Every day brings us closer to letting go. But as I've told you before, I don't want to let go until I have to.

The way you care for me. The way you look at me. The way you defeatedly admit that you love me.

The way I hold you. The way I still get turns in my stomach before I see you. The way I'm always there to tell you how much I care.

So as you kiss me and wink goodbye, no matter what the circumstance. I just know...

You love me. :)
