We have a pact that whoever dies first
Will find a phone booth in heaven
And call to let us know if there's an all-you-can-eat buffet,
If you have wings and halos
And what the temperature is.
We laugh but we know in our hearts
If possible, we would somehow connect
Even after life has lead to our untimely death.
We have a promise to meet when we're eighty--
Dressed up as saintly nuns and holding tight
To our bibles, prayer beads and water pistols,
With a hearse waiting in front of the building for a quick get-away;
We're going to rob a bank someday.
We laugh now but we've come to understand
We have each other's backs
No matter how crazy the plan.
We've come to recognize our personality clashes;
Survived some fights and spats
We thought we would never come back from.
Our nerves can be pushed to the limits sometimes
But that's just human nature for you.
We laugh at the end of the day because we know
No matter where life takes us
We always have each other wherever we go.
No one is hungry because one of us is always paying
No one gets left out because they're going through a bad spell;
Even if they are driving one of us crazy
We hold tight onto the fact that someday
Everything will once again be well.
We laugh with the windows down so everyone can hear
Our friendship is one of a kind
And I feel complete when I have my friends near.
Will find a phone booth in heaven
And call to let us know if there's an all-you-can-eat buffet,
If you have wings and halos
And what the temperature is.
We laugh but we know in our hearts
If possible, we would somehow connect

Today
Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
Oddly, yesterday was too, and so too will tomorrow be.
But today could just be the last day of the rest of your life
as well, so I'd like to say it was good to know you in advance.
Cause you're pretty much fucked if I'm right.

love is an understatement.
i built up all
of our cliffs, and
promised to catch you
when you fell, but i
never said i'd catch you
when you
jumped.
-
all of my homeless
friends are gone, i'm the
only one left in town,
so this is what
it feels like
to be
alone.
-
this goddamn heart
has forgotten how
to bleed, broken
mirrors and
pieces of my
old walls are scattered
on my floor,
it's time
to move again.
-
this old apartment
is filled with long-lost dreams and
all too vivid memories.
not to mention the cobwebs
in the cabinet.
-
i promised you
forever, but
tomorrow doesn't
count.
because the time
between now
and forever
is just
practice.

my friend friday
My friend Friday spends Tuesday afternoons looking for things that no one else can find. These things are small and blend with the everyday so suitably, that they elude most of us, even after our morning coffee or cigarette. But invariably Friday finds them with ease, and sets them upon my doorstep every Wednesday morning, pawing at my breakfast with his fresh wonders.
I saw a boy die yesterday! He howls, the door slamming behind him. He is not in the same room as I; he is yelling this across my house at 5:30am, eliciting angry grumbles from my somber roommates. Sending the saloons doors clacking and banging, he gushes in

This month for =Flutterings poetry contest, the subject was Best Friends...
Well I couldn't just pick ONE person...
which might disqualify me...
But if you knew us, you would realize that our group is like one person...
Where one goes, the other is bound to follow sort of thing...
Mess with one, mess with all of us, etc, etc...haha
But anyway, I love them so much...seriously, we have a lot of laughs together and it's such a good time...
Everyone brings their own uniqueness to the group...
And if you saw us, you'd be like "wow, how are they all friends?"
Because we just rock like that...
And I know that different futures await all of us...
But I hope that no matter what...
We'll meet up when we're 80 and rob a bank. haha
And if you wish to join the contest, check out =Flutterings 's journal...and her poetry because she's pretty fantastic. ^^
