Back in 2016, and Now 2025

If Friendship Had a Face Back Then, It Wore Your Smile

I can’t remember the exact day we met, and maybe that’s okay. Some memories don’t need dates, just feelings.

I was supposed to meet my high school buddy at 7-Eleven, and then surprise! I got a message saying you were picking me up instead. I’d only just started learning how to do things solo, and there you were, all smiles.

I thought we’d hop on a trike, but it turned into a casual walk instead. I just laughed to myself, mainly because you didn’t stop talking the whole time and somehow never ran out of breath. Like… how?? 😂 From then on, hanging out with you was something I looked forward to. You always had this light about you, and seeing how happy my friend was around you gave me a little happy vibe too.

Oh, and my favorite thing about you? How you care for your siblings. It’s the kind of love that makes me want to call my own sister and pretend I’m not crying after.

 

P.S.
Just a little thank-you note from someone who thinks you were one of life’s coolest surprises.

 


Wait… It’s Been Nine Years?!

Time’s painted us in new colors.
Maybe that’s just how life likes to play,
switching crayons
when you finally like the color.

I hope you’re super okay,
with plenty of rest too.

Just felt like letting you know
you made my world a little warmer back then
(and a lot funnier too).

I joked about calling you mom,
but you’ve always been
my little sis.
