'that Missing Link'

One day after years of searching for that missing link he came along, without warning he meddled with the barricades I build... The things I used to protect myself, fragile me, all exposed and yet the steps we took healed us both... Not realizing that every day our dependence on others for validation were being cut away not knowing we were on a journey of discovery of who we are without faceless crowds dictating our behavior... I've learned to love myself I've learned to love others again without the fear of losing them, I've learned to be happy without being afraid that something sinister might happen we've grown together and we have grown apart but we are always in each other’s hearts Even though we're miles apart our paths have been cemented... Connections remain even distance can't separate... It's a friendship you don't ask questions about it’s a friendship you nurture. Not because you are forced to, But because it’s the one thing That has kept us centered and made me embrace who I really am… I will always be thankful for you… Contest Name : “The Right Time” By : Wilma N.
