mejor amigo

to my bestie.

wordplay: a literary technique in which the words that are used become the main subject of the work. a manipulation of definitions. here is an example. definitions have been taken from various dictionaries.

a friend is a favoured companion.

a companion is a treasured partner,
that can communicate delicately and indirectly.
what more a favoured companion?

a partner is an intimate friend,
one that is attached to another by affection or esteem,
marked by a warm friendship developing through long association.
what more a treasured partner?

if a friend is all this, what more an intimate friend.

intimacy is not what everyone thinks it is.
it isn’t an action. it has little relation or no relation to intercourse.

intimacy is the perfect characterization of one’s deepest nature
intimacy is familiarity. informal warmth with the absence of ceremony.
intimacy appropriates the ordinary and the casual.
it is to be intrinsic in nature, and essential to its being,
to the extent that intimate actions are nothing out of the ordinary.

an intimate friend is a confidant.

if a friend is a :
favoured companion; a treasured partner; an intimate friend; a confidant
what more is a best friend?

a best friend cannot be defined by mere words.
it cannot be limited by language.
a best friend is you.
i am lucky to have a best friend.

to us,
cheers.
