My Best Friend - Alex Preston

We are all the same

We feel the same pains

Domesticated creatures

With different last names

No matter what I was in life

No matter what I did

I could stare into your eyes

And see myself as a kid

Grassy fields, and salty bays

Sting my eyes, again today

Go ahead through the pearly gates

Ill be there before you know it

At the touch of love and loss of love

We all become a poet

But this, is not the end

Thank you for protecting me

As pretty as a flower

I wish I had one more day

Or even one more hour

With my best friend

A regretful river fills my heart

And butterflies reside

In my stomach when my mind, thinks of the times

The times we were together, and the times I wasn’t there,

I hope you didn’t care, oh I hope you didn’t care

Grassy fields, and salty bays

Sting my eyes, again today

Go ahead through the pearly gates

Ill be there before you know it

At the touch of love, and loss of love

We all become a poet

But this, is not the end

Thank you for protecting me

As pretty as a flower

I wish I had one more day

Or even one more hour

With my best friend

With my best friend
