You feel it in your ear
Her breath
It’s much louder than
you expected and you
Jolt
backwards.
The bursts of air
tickle your neck
and a
chill
runs up and down
your spine.
You listen to her
gossip and giggle
at the lies.
You know she lies
but you don’t care.
It’s funny
There are some truths
but they aren’t funny.
You wonder
If you are laughing
at her gossip
or at the constant
flow
of air
that makes your neck
hairs stand

on end.
You shiver.
Not because
You are cold,
but because you

love her.
She is your
Best
Friend.
She is sharing her secrets
with you in the most

Personal
the most

Silent
the most
Intimate
the most

Exclusive
way she can.
She whispers.
