To The Only One

• Artist: Mira Tayia Rose
• Description: I was told to write an assignment to show my feelings towards someone, and I chose one of my best friends, who is, at the moment, going by the name 'Rosalie'. We were a little wacky when we were younger, as you can probably tell from my poem, and you must be daft if I have to tell you how I feel for my bestest buddy. And I'm making bestest a word. Yes, I can do that.
  This is a poem that was actually accepted for online publication on TeenInk Raw.

Many things are written
On the subject of
Friendship.

From poems,
To dictionary entries,
To the glass plaque
(Rose entrapped)
On your bedside table.
From me,
To you.

None are right!
Nothing shows the true
Nature of friendship.

Nobody
And
Nothing
Can.
Yet we may try.
So...

To the only one who
Would possibly complain
My name doesn't end in
'Ly'
Then dub me
'Caitlly'

To the only one who
Knows
Who,
And what,
(And how redundent)
Aunt Fester
Is.

To the only one who
Helped me perfect
Apple-
Pinata-
Baseball

To the only one who
Laughed endlessly
With me
Because of the
Harry Potter themed
Irony.

To the only one who
Forgave me for going to Duluth
And loved the
I'm-sorry-I-went-to-Duluth-for-your-birthday!
Teddy bear.

To the only one who
Mellow could possibly
Be afraid of.

To the only one who
Is SO
Incredibly
SLOW
That I can go to my locker,
Then to the library
and
STILL
get to lunch before
you.

To the only one who
Made me laugh,
and smile,
When I couldn't.

To the one who is
Always there,
And who I will always trust.

There are a lot of little private jokes in here, I realize, but just to inform everyone 'Mellow' refers to one of the cats I had.
