Dear 5'9'' Small Person,
How come I never noticed how you were like me? I have known you since I first had breath. You just always lurked in the shadows. As small children, filled with hope in our eyes, and happiness in our souls, we played together. Who knew that when we grew older, we would find each other again? Who knew that in the times we were apart, we suffered through the same things? I am so thankful for you. We found each other broken and battered. Yet we were able to treat each other wounds. I am glad to say that you were a great help to me. For you listened when nobody else did. I am much better now, thanks to the effort of you and many others. It is just sad that while I was/am getting better, you are left behind.
- R.E.
