To The Moon and Back

Two years ago in a wave of confusions and misunderstandings I made a friend so close that I cannot imagine life without him anymore. He's as protective as an elder brother, as immature as a kid, as annoying as a younger sibling and as loving as no one has ever been. I forget all my worries when I talk to him. I don't meet him in person... well he is in the USA but Skype makes it easier for us. We struggle through time differences but we manage to get out of it together. He's always been there for me and I hope I have been there for him when he needed me. 

But our friendship started on a very shaky note. His breakup, my rejection, his family, my 'friends'. It was crazy. But somehow we ended up being there for each other. We were never physically present for the other but virtually via emails, messages, skype calls we were always there. And that's what has made us so strong. Distance was our friend not foe. 

It was all great until I took up a liking for him. Probably one of the worst decisions I have made in my life. Not because he was douchebag... well, I was one. I had put a stupid crush over my friendship with him. A friendship that meant our entire world to both of us. I didn't realise what i was doing but he did. And boy, he was brilliant. 

The way he tackled it, the way he sustained all my tantrums and drama - and the way he nailed it in my head that we were more important to each other than being in a stupid relationship. Now when I look back and think about it had it not been for his maturity and sensible thinking, I would have lost the best thing that has happened in my life. I would have lost a great friend. 

The beauty of being us is that even we don't know what we are. No we are not JUST friends... but we are not lovers. We have reached a tangent of love for each other that none of it matters anymore. I love him to the moon and back and i would do anything in my power if he was in trouble. We talk once a week I guess...but when we do, it's like the world is our kingdom...

He is my best friend, he is my soulmate, he is my guardian angel and the best part of it all... he's himself. 

Love you D.
