Dear Best Friend...

Dear Best Friend, you might not know it now but you saved me. You picked up the phone that summer every time i thought of doing something irreversible and for that i have to thank you. I wouldve regretted it. And i know to you i was just me venting because i had a hard family vacation but it wasnt. You were my lifeline that summer. When no one else picked up the phone you did. You distracted me from myself and my thoughts. I know sometimes you cant pick up the phone but just know that every time you do it could be from someone wishing everything would just stop. Just for a little while.you helped me get thru the hardest summer of my life, and because of you i still have it. So thank you. Thank you for being there, for letting me talk shit about everyone and everything, for being someone i can trust, for being someone i can let in. i am forever grateful for you. All i ask is that you pick up the phone. It doesnt always have to be for me. Pick up the phone when you sister calls from college in a few years. Shes having a hard time too even if she doesnt show it. Pick up the phone when your friends call. Just pick up the phone. Because i know you dont see it but everyone around you is struggling and you dont know how many times i have thought about ending it all and you picked up. Pick up now. -Someone you'd miss (hopefully)
