My best friend is my Kindle
I haven’t known it for years
Because It’s new on the block
But one day, I took a
chance
And got involved
So far, it hasn’t hurt my feelings
Or deleted me or unfriended me
Nor dropped me as if I didn’t mean a thing
It hasn’t criticized me
Judged me
Or made me feel unwanted
It remembers my name
It always has the time
And I always seem to be invited
Or what someone said behind my back
It doesn't exclude me because "I won't know anyone"
It doesn’t leave me behind
It doesn’t describe its travels
And with whom,
It doesn’t tell me about the party
Punctuating I was left out
It waits for me
I can have breakfast,
Lunch, and dinner with it
It never seems to tire of me
A perfect companion
Who gives me its full attention
It doesn’t feel sorry for me
Or look away
because
something
Is more Interesting than me
No one knows what I’m thinking
Or reading
It doesn’t gossip
It knows how to keep a secret
It’s very interesting
Sometimes funny, sometimes sad
Sometimes it just sits quietly
Sometimes it gives me advice
It must think I’m interesting too
It remembers what I
was doing
It saves my place
And when I come back
We pick up just where we left off
As if we were never apart
Like any good friend would.
