Best Friend

She was set on the boy that persevered.
For three years, he wrote letters and she loved him-so it appeared.
She lied and to herself, wishing it was true,
That he was meant to be with her, she construed.

Her best friend made her laugh and smile for hours on end.
She fell in love with him; not an act, not to pretend.
She wanted him, he wanted her.
Everyone knew it, but to them it was a blur.

On one special day, he finally confessed.
He told her he'd be extremely blessed,
To hold her in his arms and for them to be together;
For them to end up with each other forever.

They are still in love and their story isn't one we can say will end or ended.
Their vows stated till death do them part before those who attended.
They're lucky to be in love with their best friend,
And now she will never have to pretend.
