i miss the way you laughed,

(it made me laugh, too)

and the way you were kind

(i was never that kind)

the way you listened to me

(when no one else would)

the way you told stories

(funny ones, not dumb ones like me)

the way you liked her and knew she was good for me

(but the way you also warned me, because i'm not good for her)

the way you never judged me for who i've been or who i am

(and always encouraged me to be my best, even though neither of us knew who that is)

the way you were quiet when you were mad

(and i made you mad a lot)

mostly i just miss the way you were my best friend

(and still are my best friend)
