Requirements Poem by Justin Reinalda

You gotta miss me when I'm gone,
And do your best to right me when I'm wrong,
You have to like wearing my clothes in the morning,
And you shouldn't constantly remind me I'm boring,
Don't just laugh, actually think I'm funny,
Eat my mashed potatoes even when they're runny,
Love every moment I call you "mine",
Be prepared for a kiss at every stop sign,
You've gotta humor the dork inside me,
Be content knowing I don't know what I want to be,
You have to understand, some days my only volume is loud,
And only short periods of time should be spent in a crowd,
You gotta stick like a cooked noodle to the wall,
Help me up and dust me off every time I fall,
Trust me and know that I come through,
I always have, always will, its just what I do.
