Friendship Non Anon


my best (platonic) friend

 

the respect i feel for you as a woman runs through my being further than the deepest vein offering me absolute existence each day

 

i thrive when you thrive, your happiness fueled by accomplishments lifts my heart to levels indescribable as i stand by elated for you

 

your hard earned achievements place an aura around you that blinds, a force others must recognize as the goddess within

 

i am amazed that you allow me to critique, you are already a masterpiece, an impeccably painted canvass, the woman created by you

 

you ask me for my thoughts in the name of sustenance and advancement, but who am i? you are absolutely perfect the way you are

 

my heart hurts when you are subdued by the harshness of life, subjected to attempts to control the astonishing power that is the essence of you

 

you are my compadre, my sister, my sympathizer, and my champion, i will always stand with you no matter the tumult

 

i am changed, purification by fire at your examination of my soul as the woman i am in the day-to-day, for which i am thankful

 

our secure love for each other creates transformation born of unabashed honesty, and purely unfettered assessment

 

when non-platonics have passed we will sit as old bitties together, unfurling the dutifully unshared, relishing in days of youth, laughing at life lived well

 

you have allowed me into the days of your astonishing existence, i am the luckiest woman in the world, i’ve found the world’s very best friend in you.
