For the first time In several months I have felt an emotion That isn't resent For another human being. I am thinking of one of My truest friends. One of my main confidants In all of life's turmoils. And this emotion is sad. I am sad because she truly Believes that her path is set, That this is the only way. She is self loathing and she is sad. She is brave above all else But she is also a coward. I wish more then anything For her safety In these approaching times. They will not be easy For anyone.
