finding her mr darcy

we have been friends since we were 12

that's 24 years,

double the amount of years

we didn't know each other.

together we have survived

bad haircuts, bad fashion,

bad boys, and bad cars.

we were side by side

during first loves and first heartbreaks.

we cheered each other on

through grad school and law school.

we have changed addresses more times than we can count.

we planned our weddings, got drunk at each other's first weddings,

spent hours on the phone during our divorces

and laughed till we cried while comparing dating stories.

we have been there for each other through

the most difficult and darkest days

and through the best and most joyous days.

she is the closest thing i have to a sister

and i am so happy that she has finally

found her mr darcy.

they are on the beach

as i type

having a very romantic moment

promising to love each other forever.

she is more than my bff

she is the cheese to my macaroni

and even though we live miles apart

we are never far from each other's heart.

happy wedding day ash!

xoxo
