You were always my favorite
just because you always had a way of saying things
so that I could understand them
a way of being liked by everyone
that made me think that you were some kind of wizard.
You made everyone feel like their own personal path
was magical and wonderful and perfect
and in a way you were lying through your teeth
but you were also telling the purest truth.
You had a certain naivete about you
and a way of making everyone
think that they are one hundred percent interesting
one hundred percent of the time.
You were a ceaseless outlet of information
I often wondered how you kept so much knowledge in one location
it was as if your brain was bigger on the inside
than it was on the outside.
You were so full of goodness
that I often wondered if you'd ever done anything bad
it just didn't seem in your character.
You had always been inspirational
and every time I talked to you
you made me want to be a better person.
