a two half locket

if I had a friend who knew me
one I could touch with my two hands
I would tell him all my secrets
and he wouldn't react to them

someone different than a sister or a brother or a mom
although I'd never trade them...
just a person with a journey
somewhat different than I'm on

she could see inside my heart
and know I tried my best
that I am just a human
with a complicated past

I could think the best of him whenever
and most often be right
because we are just embodied spirits living an Earthly life

she could read my eyes
in spite of all my words
and I would know his eyes too...
our eyes could speak together loudly
like souls across a room

and when she needs me
I somehow just know
and we could cheer each other
without really trying though

we wouldn't need a two half locket
or matching diamond rings
just that deep down understanding
we both are made for bigger things.
