do you know (you're my best friend)

poem

inspired by: baeksoo (baekhyun/kyungsoo)

notes: i keep seeing posts like "baekhyun's such a jerk to ksoo" or "kyungsoo must hate baekhyun". Contrary to popular belief, I think their friendship happens to be one of the closest (if not the closest) in EXO. I adore their friendship and I really think that it's the things that we either barely catch or simply don't see that makes their friendship so special. It's in the little moments, and I think that's really beautiful.

do you know

that when your fingers start to tremble

and your eyes start to wander

that I’m here watching

concerned

                     and worried,

waiting for a moment when we’re alone

so you can be free to cry

without the fear of judgment?

 

                                                               do you know

that when worse comes to worse

and the ties that bind start to tighten

that it’s your company that I crave the most

because only you can make me smile the way I need to

                     in order to feel strong once again?

 

                                                                do you know

that when we were younger

 

i never hated you,

not even from the start?

 

i admired you,

                           just like i do today,

because you’re everything that i

’m not,

because you never try to hide who you are,

because you are you.

 

do you know, Baek?

                  i think you do.

                              i hope you do.

 

                                                               do you know?

(you’re my best friend.)
