I was coming back from the store
You're walking in the rain, with no protection
I remember when I was walking alone
You remember that, do you not?
The rain was light but I was sick
Went to the hospital and came back walking
You saw me walking alone, with no protection
You got close to me and then my heart skipped a beat
"May I walk with you Flippy?" you asked me
I remember trembling at the very thought of you near me
All I could say was, 'Y-yes'
You held the umbrella closer to me so no rain could touch me
The rain was touching you only
Forgive me for being so foolish and only thinking of myself
But, I was so scared of being with you...
I panicked, I walked faster as you called to me
'Flippy!' you cried as I ignored you rudely
I can still remember how your face was happy
But I hope you have forgiven me
I'll return your good deed now
It is my turn to help you
When I walked near you I asked, "May I walk with you Flaky?"
And you said "Sure." with that sweet, soft voice
"My hands are really cold!" I said by accident
Then, you did something that made me blush
You grabbed my hands and said "Mine are warm."
We stood there, looking into each others eyes
Then my words slipped out "Your eyes are incredibly beautiful."
"Thank you." was all you could say to me afterwards
Your next action left me without any word at all
You hugged me and cried, without me knowing why
I didn't know what to do, but just hold you
Hold you and never let you go
You warm body touching mine for the first time
Is this how you feel when you hold someone you love?
Then I had to saying what I was feeling was true
My words felt slow, "Flaky, I love you"
You cried even louder and held me tighter
Your grip made me breathe harder and I feel empty
I feel as if I just hurt you terribly
You let go and ran, crying
When you were away you kept saying 'why?'
I feel as if I got to close to you
To close and made you believe even more
If I ever hurt you I'm sorry for it
That week, I got a letter in my mail
Looked at it and it said 'To Flippy, my best friend'
I surprise by the words and the person it was from
The letter read,
'Flippy, I'm in the hospital of east of the docks
I'd would love you would like to come
Visit me in room two fifty-one
Love, Flaky'
Got in the truck and went to the hospital
When to the table and asked for Flaky
They took me to the room where she was staying
When I opened the door, you stood near an open window
You were wearing a hospital outfit
But something was wrong with you
You turned and I saw that you were pale
Your eyes were surrounded by black line and
Your face was empty and sad
I never seen you like this because you were always glad
You ran up to me and hugged me tightly
Saying 'I've been poisoned by a type of venom'
I looked at you and saw that you weren't lying
'I don't have much time left to live'
I held you tightly and started to cry
The though of losing you brung a tear to me eye
'I wanted to tell you something I never did'
Then I asked what was it
You got close to me and made me start to shake
You put your face in front of mine and smiled
'Ever since that day we met I knew you were special
That feeling you made me love and hate
I was to young to know what love really was
But I thought of what love really does
You always made me feel I can always believe
But then that week of 1999
I found out, my life has been a lie
I found out I was really adopted
They told me that day and that's why I cried
You were the first to help me see
What life could truly mean
I opened my eyes since that day to be free
But then January 9th, 2009
Is when I received the bad news,
I was injected with a type poison that doesn't have a cure
They mixed up with the delivery
That is why I ran away when you told me you loved me
I'm sorry that your love was for nothing
I'm going to die in a couple of months
But thank you at being my first love
And I hope this isn't what love really does'
We held each other in the others arms
Told you that no matter what happens
I'll always love you
We kissed for the very first time
That's when your face finally shined
But it disappeared on July 15th
You died a virgin and said 'I wanted you to be the first'
I wish I could have told you my feeling at first
Now I'm at your tombstone saying this poem
Promise me you'll meet me when I come to Heaven
Be there to open the golden gates of peace
Then we'll love each other in the afterlife
And I also wanted to say
Forgive me for being so foolish and selfish
that one rainy night
i wish one day we will meet in paradise and dance the days away
Be there forever until the end of time
Just forgive me for not telling you sooner
Just remember,
This is Flippy, your best friend
And I'll always love you
