Love Poem: My Best Friend

My Best Friend

My best friend can't speak
She can't sing, she can't shriek.

But she can listen for hours,
Almost like a special power.

She hears my laughter,
When I share my banter.

But when I need to cry, 
She’s always nearby.

She runs and plays-
She could for days.

My best friend likes to sleep,
On my bed, by my feet.

Whenever I call,
She comes running with her ball.

She doesn't judge-
Or hold a grudge.

Whenever I’m feeling lonely,
I want her company only.

She knows my voice,
I am her first choice.

Her smile brings me joy.
Our friendship is one no one can destroy.

I love her more and more each day-
And those feelings will never go away.

She is my best friend-
And I will love her until the end.
