I love you a lot ya fatty (and thanks for the surprise)

missed that friend

(more than I knew)

miss the sloppy hat

crooked smile

content giggle

way with words

real hugs

covered-up smoke smell

never-ending night walks

"I love you a lot"'s

tea slamming evenings

tower chats

nappy ripped clothes

"well that's just crazy"

body checks

silence without wondering

grave yard confessions

fat kid and becky jokes

whining

"well you're just a bitch!"

compline looks

scissor jumps

same stories

trust

singing

the only one i could stand to

see somedays

drunken messages

pushes onto the sidewalk

future-planning

pipe-man spying

pike-place exploring

driving

scootering

kisses on my forehead

to let me know

someone was (t)here.

.............drive safe old friend.
