To have a wordless bond

One that can not be sold or bought

And even if your lost

They will come to find you

To love you unconditionally no matter what may come

To feel seen

To be heard

To know that even when the world turns its back on you

You won’t be facing the worst alone

You will have a safety net

Confidence in knowing they will have your back no matter what

That they will understand your struggles and pain

And encourage your hopes and dreams

Celebrate your victories

And protect your boundaries and virtue even when you are not there to defend yourself

To belong is never having to guess if they will be there during good times and bad
