Analysis of My Best Friend
My dear best friend- we hung out every day
As much as you annoyed me, I loved you in every way
You were always around me, laying on my bed
Your favorite blanket was the fuzzy one of the color red
Now as I bury you underneath the rocks
I make sure to leave you, your favorite piece of cloth
I will think about you when I’m eating, sleeping, and drinking
You will always be loved, even though you’ve stopped blinking
