who am i, that i should be vying for your touch?
what is better?
to have a best friend who knows you better than anyone, who kicks your ass when you need it and lets you kick hers when she does, who listens to you and always tells you exactly what she thinks, who shares a deep love with you which stems from years of shit and tears and laughter and long drives with nothing to think about?
or...
to have finally found someone who reduces loneliness to nothing more than not being in the other's presence, who can teach you (and whom you can teach), who makes you finally want to better yourself, who makes you think that love, marriage, and the baby carriage aren't all that ridiculous of notions, who makes you feel safe in a way that is oh so weird and wonderful?
