Because There Aren’t Enough Words (WillowsWhimsies)

Her light shines brighter than the sun
But she holds it close to her chest
Not wanting to outshine  
Even though she does
 
She stands on the fringe of shadows
No need for over exposure
 
“I'll just be over here in my little corner
spillin' what I'm feelin'
and doin' what I do”
 
See what I mean?
 
She pours her soul
Her heart
Her experiences onto her pages
And yours
With equal measure
 
Thoughtful, supportive, patient and kind
She’s one of a kind
 
Her footprints seen
Lifting me
When my journey
When life
Gets too heavy
 
Healing is meant to be shared
 
I’ll never have enough words
To express my gratitude
For her guidance
Our friendship
I thank the universe every day  
For allowing our paths to cross
 
It’s not lost on me
That this friendship was meant to be
 
She holds her shine close to her chest
Shining brighter than the sun
