friends you say?

Someone at my work doesn't believe in friends. But when I cry she cries, when I get mad she also gets mad, when I'm feeling down she is feeling down, when I am happy she is happy. I think she might be closer than a friend. I don't blame her for not believing. Friends are rare, almost extinct.

Keep your (friends) close and that whole thing about your enemies closer is just bad advice. Like I want my enemy looking at me all the time. The farther the better. I have trust issues.

The person I work with doesn't believe in friends. She is just one year older than me. That should tell you she is pretty young ;) When she was out of the country her daughter went into unexpected labor. She messaged me and we were there in her place. When my dad got seriously hurt back in 2011 she cried with me. She still to this day asks about him. When people call her racist I step in and defend her. When people tell me to go cross the border again, she stands her ground right next to me.

Its hard to find people like her. They are hard to find. She is one of a kind. I think I just rhymed.

We may live different lives but one thing that keeps us close is that we are women in today's world trying to live daily lives without all the bad stuff that tries to bring us down. She holds a special place in my heart if I ever loose touch I hope she is there to remind me that I'm not her friend just someone she knows. Because friends don't exist, because if they did it wouldn't be this good of a friendship.

Wouldn't want to jinx it.
