Challenge
Write me a love story that doesn't involve romantic love.
Romance is great, but sometimes we all need to appreciate two or more people caring about each other in a strictly platonic sense. Write something that highlights one of those kinds of relationships, whether it be a short story, a poem, or whatever. Don't forget to tag me!

A Lifelong Love
At 5 we met
Two kids just starting out
At 6 we looked
Too scared to truly speak
At 7 we talked
Who knew we would be so alike
At 8 we were together
No one thought we’d end up like we did
At 9 we sat together
Our teacher didn’t know what was coming
At 10 I got sick
She held my hand the whole way
At 11 we were inseparable
No one could tear us apart
At 12 she broke
I held her as she let her mother go
At 13 we lived
The world was ours
At 14 we fought
Two headstrong girls who were “right”
At 15 we drifted
Life takes us down two different roads
At 16 we were strangers
Living with a missing piece
At 17 we reunited
With boyfriends on our arms
At 18 we graduated
With tears in our eyes we whispered
“we made it”
