I don't know what happened here… One second I was pondering an idea to write about, the next, POOF! This was here. Hope you like it. It's about friendship, between Butler and Artemis. I had no idea whatsoever about Poetry Format, so I just left it in Story format.
I was going to put little snippets of writing in between, but then decided it didn't fit. That's why it's so short. I thought it was rather an overused ending, but there you go.

Today
Today I learned
My father was dead
And you still stayed
To put me in bed
Today I found
A threatening letter
Telling many lies, yet
You still made me feel better
Today my eyes
Gave passage to tears
You helped me get through
Their taunting leers
Today I tripped
And fell down the stairs
And there you were
Giving me your cares
Today my conscience
Yelled at me
And you helped me heal
You made me see
Today you saved me
For the fiftieth time
And I felt tainted knowing
I rarely gave you a dime
Today I was broken
When you almost died
I was begging for your life
When you sat up, I cried
Today I realized
That I was one of your top cares
I suppose I gave you
Quite a few gray hairs
Today I remembered
All the things I've done
And how you were there
For every single one
Today I didn't
Know what to do
So I sat down
And wrote this poem for you
