My Best Friend

by Jennifer Scorpio - Not entered

I never understood,
how one person,
could love another,
with such capacity,
the deepest trust,
that they never,
doubt their words.

It seems impossible,
to not envy
this human being.
Impossible to share,
heart and soul
with another spirit.
Until I met,
my best friend.

She would listen,
while I talked.
She would speak,
I would hear.
We shared advice,
laughed at memories,
we spoke of
dreams and goals.

Together,
we learned to
share, give, receive
learned to love.
Together,
as one, we
found the light.

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this poem for my best friend, Kate. She's taught me how
to love and she's never doubted me. She is what inspired me to
be a writer.
