“With a great heart, comes a great friend” - Anonymous!
Within my life, there are always days when I am reminded that my voyage on the emotional rollercoaster is no where near complete. Every now and then, there are days when life surprises me with elation and complete happiness which engulfs me into a reverie of Indian summers by a lake with my friends, drinking the ginger beer and having perfect smiles of utter memories.
Although today was rife with hostility - we have Shakeira Michelle Cole… (the girl in the photo, next to me) whom I am proud to mention is my best friend. Best friend. I wrote that twice as it’s twice as powerful and twice as meaningful. She has opened my eyes to many possibilities and is an inspiration to my whole existance within life.
Shakky, if you’re reading this, I’m sorry for posting the photo as I know you’ll be complaining saying ”’….GAYBOY… why?? My faceeee!’ But, you’re stunning to me, all the time, everytime. You don’t need mirrors, make-up or the ever increasing world of cosmetics as you have a radiant beauty; inside and outside. So, shut it guuurl and listen!
Shakeira, you make me whole. You are the reason I’m not a raging alcoholic as you’ve shown me things that anybody else couldn’t and you’ve embraced me into a world that I feel open in, with no secrets or no need to conceal the true me. I’m alive with you, with your personality and I don’t need no wo(man) in my life, because I’ve got you.
What I think is appropriate to show my love for Shakeira is to write the first verse of her favourite song…
Look at the stars, look how they shine for you and everything you do, yeah they were all yellow. I came along, I wrote a song for you, and all the things you do, and it was called yellow.
If my love could be physical of a shape or a size, it would reach from here and travel the universe for Shakeira Michelle Cole.
