true friend

7 years ago:
we meet at Pride Parade
I have a hand drawn rainbow on my cheek
we leave our clothes in the sand and run into the ocean

this morning:
having one of those, "I NEED to talk with someone I super trust" moments
just when she texted me after us not speaking in ages
because she needed me too
we talked for an hour and a half until my phone died

in a way:
we've never have had to "put on" anything around each other
we get to just be-
real and raw.
full of hilarity
celebrating what happens in this crazy world
that's how I know she's a true friend.
