You smile at me
We laugh together
We talk almost every day, eyes meet eyes or by voice.
You tell me all your stories.
I feel your fear, sadness, anger, happiness.
I hear your dreams, hopes, future plans, even nightmares.
Many presents are exchanged on special and important occasions.
You never forget my birthday as I never forget yours.
You take me out.
You hold me, sometimes very tights.
You hold my hands to comfort me or to comfort you.
We are always there for each other.
We are inseparable.
Although we never talk about love
I always wait for you patiently
Years after years
Hoping someday you will realize the meaning of my presence in your life
But lately, I feel that you are so far away from me
That something is going on with your life and I am not a part of it
And now, you are standing in front of me
You are telling me that you are leaving
Because you are in love with someone and ready to start a new life
You kiss me in the cheek and say goodbye
Then walk away with the happiest smile
The kind of smile I have never seen before
And I cry because that smile will never be mine
