Mbali is such a beautiful name
full of charm and worth.
Though you maybe thousands of miles apart
you lay close to my heart
clichè
I know.
like when I say you're absolutely magnificent
unlike that coffee shop hoe.
I love you
my best friend
the one who talked me through my break ups
and broken heart,
the one who comforted me
when my world seemed to fall apart.
We share inside jokes
and dirty quotes
about sex and drugs
and cigarette buds.
We talk endlessly about hot guys
that smoke
with platinum blonde hair
or vibrant blue eyes.
We are honest and true
and you know things about me
that no know else do.
I love you
I love you
Mbali
the name
that took me months to remember
but you were memorable all the same.
That cool black girl that cried when she laughed.
I miss you
I miss you
Mbali
Mbali
full of worth and charm
love and beauty.
You make me smile
in a special way because that's what you are
special
So I hope all the way in Germany
you still cry when you laugh too hard
and make weird faces to your friends
but just remember, Mbali,
I will love you to no end.
This poem was dedicated to my best friend awknutellers my wonderful best friend that moved away but never really left me. I love you baby stay beautiful.
