What Would They Have Been Like Growing Up Together?

Best friends

What would they have been like growing up together?

Side by side, playing, their parents could hardly dare to sever.

Babbling on and laughing at jokes only they understood,

the ebb and flow of growing up, from boyhood to manhood.

Reading stories aloud and concocting the wildest theories,

questioning the true meaning of life and having countless other queries.

Camping in the backyard and scheming future prank ideas,

trying to mend the various broken parts of family life and all it's pieces.

Dreaming of conquering the world together as pirates of the sea,

Rio and Sea-Wolf, they forever wanted to be!
