Amigos Poem by Cesar Herrera

best ones to talk to
best ones to walk to
the ones that get me through
day and night even after I lost a fight
they'll be there while I'm in pain
or smiling all day
can tell them things that i couldn't tell others
not even my invisible brother
I lay on my bed at 2: 05am thinking of why i have no recolection of a family
or even why I am still happilly
being with my small group
just shooting hoops
walking round til I lay on a roof
looking at the sky
thinking about when I'm going to die
