Independent Variable

Entrusted with a life.
Secrets, thoughts, insecurities shared.
A true friendship of enshrined treasures and deep understandings
and the ability to interpret and endure willingly the complexities of one another.
A strength, a bond, a sisterhood inextricably connected. Impossible to break.
The absence of that creeping feeling of nervousness.
Silences that are an exchanging of confidences.
Pursued by the known, the unknown, the curiosity linked in the minds of two.
A penchant for the future, for what will last.
It will undoubtedly last, my independent variable.
