TO MY FRIEND When I look at you, I see my safe space. I don't have to pretend to be happy around you. I don't have to wear a mask. I notice how you know what I am thinking before I speak. You know my history. You know my mistakes. And you still look at me with love. Thank you for being the one constant thing in my life. We are not related by blood. But you are family to me. I see you. And I am so lucky to know you.
