As lucky as finding a four-leaf clover in a glistening emerald patch of grass,
we found one other.
Do you know we’ve got somethin’ special?
People to stand up for us,
People to make things happen for us,
People to take a little bit of shit off-of us when we are off our rockers!
Because life gets a little too busy or complicated or lousy
and
all-of-our-stuff- starts-to-spill- out
We stand in the gap for each other
because our shoes are big enough to,
They’re big enough to take up space and fill gaps when needed.
We stand in the gap for each other
because our love is deep and wide enough to
To bridge the time we have been apart, especially when it is longer than feels comfortable.
Longer because we had to be apart or needed to, and we trusted that relationships and our heart’s muscle memory would help us withstand it.
We stand in the gap because we have built something deep enough.
We stand in the gap because we have sacrificed the time and built enough realness.
It’s tattooed on and emblazoned in our DNA; the real love only a chosen sister can make you feel.
What we’ve got is sweet and dynamic; it’s much more than they can see.
Love y’all.
