**This was inspired....well I can't even tell you it's a secret that I promised I'd keep for my best friend.

We've been friends since kindergarten,

not always been as close as we are now,

but still friends and unknown kindred souls.

She always had her group,

and I always had mine.

That was just how it was.

But we became best friends real fast,

and shared almost everything with each other.

But I held stuff back that no one knew,

and figured she held some stuff back too.

After a few years, I came clean with my secrets,

and she came clean with hers.

Her secrets hurt me, like mine hurt her.

I was a cutter, and she was a anorexic.

We both had troubles at home,

but stuck it out together,

we always will be the other's wall to lean on.

We got through just about, everything together.

Always supporting each other along the way,

when suddenly we both changed.

I was no longer a cutter, I'd stopped for her and another.

But she still had the problem with food,

and she started to pick up my old habit of cutting.

I felt like she wasn't my best friend

when she'd talk about the blade and cutting...

She was some cutter with the face of my best friend.

I loved her and still do,

but I want my old best friend

without the scars on her wrists and heart.

I was always the one who was strong

when it came to being hurt,

even though I kept getting hurt.

I wanted to protect her from all of my mistakes,

so her heart wouldn't look like mine

with all the scars and missing pieces.

But I couldn't, and now she's scarred like me,

so now we're even more alike than before.

We'll always be each others walls to lean on though,

as long as we have each other, we'll live through Hell and back.

I love her.

She loves me.

We're sisters and kindred spirits.

I love you Kalee!!! <3 Through Hell and back, we'll always be sisters and best friends!
