not dependent on who we were
but who we are now
Our bond,
characteristic of the values we were taught
and those we wish to learn
We are reciprocally acquainted
almost a mirror of each other
seeing what the other cannot see
a solidarity happens
a respect that builds
as the foundation is filled
with understanding
forgiveness
patience
and intuition
and experience
when we are at our best
The other half of who I'd like to be,
we bond so easily
With the tenacity of a mustard seed
We grow
together
like siamese twins
like re-connected kin
no identifying marks
just a life enhancing respect
mutually earned
with shared intentions
You are a Treasure
someone I can always turn to
when I need the absolute truth
when my spirit needs a lift
Your perception of things
is a beautiful gift
You make the world I live in
a peaceful,
yet powerful place
......
my best forever friend!

I know I wrote this last year, but it feels like days just fly by when you having so much fun. You have in the course of a year or two permanent-ed a place in my life. You treat me like family, from day one. There is not much I can say you haven't done for me, or not a way you haven't inspired me. I love your children (young men), and I loved spending time with you in Texas. I hope I can get back there very soon.
ReplyDeleteYou already know I love you, you already know you inspire me...and you already know I wish you the best in life. The only thing left to do now..is live. Each day being good friends, and closer fam.
I LOVE YOU--no homo (smile)
