Tetraphobia

Aleksa

Your bluntness makes you beautiful

your responsibility a saint

your talents as flawless

as the pictures you paint

You grew up so fast

and are burdened with three little ones

but being together

I've never had so much fun

I miss your sense of style

and your odd little quirks

you found humor in death

my little science dork

I love our writing sessons

and shrieking through the phone

five states but nine numbers away

together we're never alone

I can't wait to see you again

my crazy monkey girl

you're my best friend, Aleksa

it's us against the world.
