What can I say about you that the world doesn't know?
The way you make me smile no matter what you do?
It doesn't describe you at all.
(and is so cliche)
How can I tell of the feeling
I get when I catch a glimpse of you.
How people are so sure we are lesbians
(they are not far from truth)
You are the most loyal friend I have ever known,
Sometimes I am not sure where you end and I begin.
You've kept all my secrets
(except the ones that needed to be known)
I treasure all you hugs and kisses
And the feeling of your skin against mine.
I feel like crying as your voice sings of love
(what would you expect from two bi, teenage girls?)
You are the cause of so much of my happiness
And just as much of my sorrow
You are beautiful
You are so much like me.
I love you babe.
~Your MOB

Written to the best friend I ever had. Abbreviation of my nickname used against the possibility that someone has the means to recognize me.

Very nicely done. I like your use of questions in the beginning and your use of parentheses. I think some of them were a bit unnecessary, but I still like the concept. Other than that, great job!
