heavens opened
love poured
i held my palms open and
i caught you
somehow from the start i knew
we're permanently stuck with each other
i just never predicted how
tight we'll be bonded together
we conquered the universe
of glitter pens and barbie dolls
we tore through the streets of childhood
in spy suits, fighting trolls
the embarrassing little secrets
were all unabashedly shared
we built a city with blocks of memories
of all the truths we dared
our differences cannot go unnoticed
yet we are exactly the same
two souls fond of laughter yet dwells in silence
and we both do think my jokes are lame
you endure all my annoying nonsense
i deal with your mood-swings like a pro
we function like a balanced equation
sharing strengths and weaknesses as we grow
we pull each other
when one gets too drowned in doubt
we push each other
when one is tempted to back out
i pat your back
you wipe my tears
i lean on your shoulder
you lend me your ears
sometimes i think
you see through me
many times i think
you see more than there is to see
so i capture my affection
in the stories i tell you at night
and you penned yours
on the ten-paged letters you used to write
you believe in me more than i do myself
and sometimes i question if i deserve all that
but when you say 'good job' and that you're proud
the doubts disappear somewhat
so to you, my person
i feel more than gratitude and love
if could just bottle up my feelings and offer it to heavens
it'll come as a downpour from above
