The Word
For that one
 The one and only
 Not for attraction
 And for sure not for show
 Just for you 
 The only one who matters
 Who wants for you and you them
 The one person who you are you to
 Who you never have to please
 But do so by simply being happy
 That you’d kill a man to see them in pain
 That has you
 You see I have a person in my life
 A person who is and is not a life-long friend
 Isn’t in the fact that we have little history
 But much history in such short time
 A little little time
 But I know what it will be
 Because for me to put so much
 So much trust and truth into one
 In such a short time…
 It has to be a life-long
 And so I must say it
 To get it down
 So it’s no longer inside of me
 These words inside me screaming out loud
 I know what might be and what is
 So I will let it out
 To say it
 I have one
 One by me through it all
 Who is and isn’t my sight
 Who I can watch over 
 While knowing I am as well
 Or am being watched
 One who is so smart
 And so pure
 So kind 
 And caring
 And just what is great
 One who is proud
 And talented in so many ways
 One who reads me
 And my all
 With no troubles or doubts
 And accepts it
 Accepts it and me
 I do have one and something I have to say
 A word
 A term used to lightly
 Because not may know
 What it really entitles
 I don’t 
 I have no clue
 But they do
 Only because they do it so easily
 Just to accept me
 No easy fault
 So is this it
 But I know I am because of such
 I have no doubts 
 No fears
 I am naked here
 No boundaries 
 No shields no veils
 No masks 
 Just me
 And that’s what they see
 And I in them
 We see us 
 So in a way it can be said
 I really don’t want to
 Because of how wrong it can be taken
 Because of false meanings
 Or twisted thoughts
 But it seems I must 
 Have I known it
 Of course
 Because they do it so easily
 So I guess I should say it
 I really do love my best friend
