Bonds Between Best Friends

A special gift for Pie

As my friend and I were sitting one afternoon we stumbled upon the realization that we are connected by special bonds that only we could understand. Our hearts are tied together with the kind of unconditional love that only best friends can share. She left me that day with a challenge to put down on paper the wide array of emotions that seem inexpressible with mere words.

Any time I am able to sit with pen and paper, the words pour from my heart as the love for my friend does too. This is my attempt to express the inexpressible.

The bonds shared between friends like us
Is like no other.

It is a new language spoken
With few words.

It is a glance into the other's eyes that
Sends a surge of love to each heart involved.

It is a gentle touch, kind words, and warm
Hugs that offer the strength of armor;

The loving arms that wrap the pain
And slowly erode mountains of fear
Into tiny, bearable pieces.

It is a heart that smiles as the other
Enters the room; A heart filled with joy
By the thoughts of memories shared,
And those yet to be..

It is an abundance of emotion inexpressible
With mere words.

It is a feeling of contentment with the
Safety and security our friendship offers;
Yet, an inadequacy at the lack of ways to express
The insurmountable love and admiration we have for each other.

Others will marvel at the immensity of all that we share.
It is a true gift from God. It is a bond that
Keeps my heart singing in gratitude each day
As we breathe together on this planet
As the Very Best of Friends.
