I don't think you understand the happiness that forms in
the pit of my stomach, creeping its way to
my heart
just because of your existence.
You're more than just an anchor to me in the tidle waves of
anxiously depressive demons, no, you're
my lighthouse when the boat I call my body
is lost.
You're so much more.
And I don't think you'll ever even know just how much
your soul means to me;
how much you've fixed me beyond repair.
You're an irreplaceable beauty.
Miles won't stop the rave of contentment that just
your eyes bring forth, no, these miles are merely a speck
of dust amongst the vast shimmering starlight of
hope
you bring into my life.
You're more than what you think you are.
You're everything to me.
Don't you dare give up on this life.
Don't you dare stop being my light.
I need you.
I need you.
I need you.

My best friend inspires me to keep going. We met online two years ago and she has changed my life since day one. She's a sister to me. She's more than just my anchor; she keeps me going.
