The Bestest of Friends

Homecoming Night-
     A night of heartache.

He went with his 
     "Best Friend."
He let her sit on his lap
   as he acknowledged 
     everyone of her features
He danced with her
He held her hand
He carted her around
   like she was above the world.
He treated her-
     like he used to treat me
   probably even better.

I've never wanted the 
   "Just Friends" speech
from anyone more- then I did 
   from him, that night.

Homecoming Night-
     A night of realization.
