Daughter of a King

I can't find a song to describe my current feelings, not even a Taylor Swift one. What even is this. All the words that I had planned to write have flown out the window of my mind and I have nothing.

This time of year, this weather, it always has a strange effect on me.

Faces and places fill my mind and empty my heart till I forget who I am and I feel things I didn't know that I remembered. But this time, it's different. All I can think of is your eyes and your smile and your hands in mine and the freckles dancing on your nose. There's too much light in the thought of you to let in any of the darkness that usually envelopes me. The warm, nostalgic breeze that usually taunts me is just you, running your fingers through my hair like you always do. The loneliness that always eats away at my soul is only missing you for a little while, before we meet again and you sweep me up in your arms like you haven't seen me in years. The tainted memories are replaced by those we haven't even made yet: walks on the beach and swimming when it's hot enough for you to convince me to come in the water, pickernicks in our secret spots, road trips, lazy afternoons reading, dancing in the park, and I don't even know what else. You bring music to my life, while the others made me forget the words to my own song. We might not end up in the same place, but there's nothing you can do to turn our friendship bitter. Even goodbye will be sweet, because you are so pure, so good, so strong, and the world needs what you have to offer. I wouldn't give you up for anything less than your honest, faithful desire to serve the Lord. I love you, best friend. :)

Well, I'm not sure where all that came from... awkies. Photo time!
