Dear friend

I write you this letter as my heart aches and cracks into thousands of pieces for what has happened to our friendship. A friendship that was never formed out of wealth or intelligence. It was friendship that was born of love and honesty.

Please come alive, as I desperately need you; I’m on my knees praying unto the Heavenly Father to borrow me your soul for a few years.

I know we made a vow to go the same way every day, but it just felt right taking the other road leading to the left. It felt right to be in the dark alone as I continually did all the wrong things by myself. You were that one thing that made everything else matter to me.

Despite our hardships, we drew closer and closer. For a second I was amused at the thought of someone believing in me when no one ever did; it felt comforting to know that someone was looking over my shoulders whenever burdens felt heavier than I could bear.

It was good while it lasted. It really pains my heart, as I know that we have been separated by faith, for you were like my blood sister that never doubted my capabilities for a minute. You were my shield when everyone else threw stones at me. You were that other hand that wiped rivers on my eyelids.

I miss you my friend and hope one day we will be one again as each teardrop falls and falls…making sure a dam can be built. Stay safe wherever you are. Remain humble and brave for yourself and others.

I loved you from the very first time I laid my eyes on you, and I still love you even now. Be well my friend. I’ll always have you in my heart.

Stay blessed my lovely friend.
