be careful of the promises you make
because when you promise
the new girl sitting next to you in second grade
that you’ll be friends
you’ll be lucky enough to get stuck to her
no matter how far apart you are
because bff is a title not given easily
because bff is a promise
a commitment
and we keep our commitments
bff makes it easy to show up for each other
because their not just an old friend
they are your best friend.
so you know you can be there and they will love it.
my dad told me we were just friends because of proximity
(i know he used that word exactly)
but i don’t think he knew
how seriously i take the title
best
friend
forever
