Beginning at the End

I'm still trying to understand that when you honestly begin to make yourself a priority,
The universe will start flooding you with different people with a range of personalities. 
And you get the privilege to decide who gets access to you to stand with you in solidarity. 
Nudging you in a direction that aligns your values and helps you set boundaries.

If I wasn't listening with my soul or searching for ways to unclutter my mind. 
I wouldn't have found her, a beautiful human empathically inclined. 
Her ability to listen and encourage me was what I needed at just the right time. 
Helping me accelerate my healing and evolution as if it was of her design.

A combination of consistency that not very many people can provide. 
Conversations from the jump were easy, I opened up and my energy amplified. 
She's a light that lifted me up in my darkness and I became less terrified.

It doesn't matter what she's been through,
All that matters is that she's gotten through,
She makes me feel like I too will get through,
If keep on keepin on making sure I stay true. 

To me her mind is her most attractive quality. 
She opened up her soul with a genuine generosity. 
I wish she didn't live in a different state in a different city. 
We could possibly do great things together and simultaneously,
Cultivate a friendship and who knows what that would lead to or what could be.

How can the universe be so useful but so inconsiderate?
How can it present someone that is seemingly a perfect fit. 
But lives eighteen hundred miles away from right where I sit. 
Crazy how in such a short time we've become so close knit

Miss Mississippi, you and your character will always have my gratitude, 
You made me aware of my altitudes and helped me change my attitude,
This gap of time that keeps growing seems like an impossible interlude. But I can only see it as a beautiful connection and a hopeful prelude.

Thankful for you just being who you truthfully are,
Thank you for living close to my soul even if physically, you are far. 
I will apply what I've learned from you and thank my lucky stars. 
Because of you, I can confidently live my truth and appreciate my scars.
