Poem for Necia :)

Grasshoppers

It has been a long ride

with you tight by my side

and it makes me wonder how

it would have been right now

..if it weren’t for the grasshoppers.

It seems like it was yesterday

the day we were forever changed;

after VBS summer two thousand and three

the moment a hobby led us to be

best friends like no other.

Although we didn’t hang out as much at school,

everywhere else we were inseparable acting like tools.

From singing and dancing, goofing off in your room,

It’s hard to believe it’s almost that time in June

and I’m realizing how it’s going to be in September.

I’ve been there during the loss of your grandfather and pets,

when it could have put your faith in God to the test;

but you were stronger than to stop believing

even through the difficult process of grieving

..that makes me look up to you like a sister.

Even though you fall asleep much earlier than me,

we’re always sure to make some time to speak.

I’ll never forget our chat in your camper in May,

to others I would never dare to even say.

If it weren’t for those grasshoppers..
