BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE
Friendships can be complicated in themselves. Shout out to all Bestfriends who kept it together till this day! They are real, mine does it for me. Just like 4:44 did Jay Z, 5:23 saw me quaver. I could swear this was more than poetry or prose but a lyric because I literally swayed to a Stanley Enow & Sarkodie beat behind this pool of words.
To All the BestFriends In The World..
MY BESTFRIEND IS MY YAY DEN (BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE)
The long years we threaded out saw cuts, rough, tangling but we stretched it even further.
Even when you said she had it all, she nayed she had it less.
She carried it all on her back, what she had aspired, acquired and inspired but it was never enough until she held my hand and we leaped ahead together.
She told even Him, I have you and you have me but we have her, and because she did that, He bought it so I see clearer, and only at that time my speckles fell, did my future come rolling in.
Even before BooBear settled into their lives, I was their baby and their pillar.
We did what few could do, we have what few could have, we out-familied our family, we overrode our contemporaries, we disarmed our disclaimers, we motivated the Believers and even our lovers as we respect them and they do us, holla!
We’ve been separated some years but how many it is, always faders because actually it never matters.
Did you doubt the hand behind this, the authenticity doesn’t strike me anymore, the rawness do not frighten me anymore, the silent spells do not move me anymore, the shades do not affect us anymore, the disputes is our ship in progress, because the Creator crafted it all.
And in my drive all I envision is a Pay Back Package but will it ever be enough… those dreams I see, white sand and blue seas…
And then that time I was drowning in, she knew it was time to buy me a house.. Imagine that!! and I knew a time would come to tell the world we exist and no time better than a Click of 30– my Bestfriend – my she – amour!
