Dear Friend,
I've known you for a while now. You are part of my family, and part of me. I think of you every day, and remember how lucky I am to have a friend like you. You, with your sarcasm and bizarre sense of humor. Your laugh, and the way your eyes light up when you get excited. That intense look you get when you're thinking really hard, trying to figure out a math problem. Your "hello"s, which, even if you saw me yesterday, still arrive cheerful and genuine.
You are everything to me. Without you I could not stay sane, truly. You keep me grounded, but you also help me escape when the stress starts in. You help me every day, reminding me of important things and giving me advice. You sing with me, and dance with me, and it's wonderful.
With you, I'm allowed to be silly. You are safe, and I trust you with my entire being. Really.
I cannot think of a better way to spend my day than with you. You motivate me to be better, to work harder, to be the best me that I possibly can. And that is more than any girl could ever ask for. The moment when I first realized that you were my friend, the world changed.
Things started looking brighter, because I knew that you were something special. And I was right. You have lived up to every expectation of friendship. You comfort me. You laugh with me. But most importantly you respect me. And I respect you.
You see that's what friendship is, mutual respect. Sincere, genuine appreciation. Fully accepting someone for who they are and all the scars that come along with that. But you haven't flinched away from me. Not once. And for that I thank you.
Love you to the moon, past there, and back again.
