I feel safe with you

 I once had a friend like this, not so very long ago.
Once he just came over ex tempore very late in the evening... We both had gone through something very deep, he never talked about his pain but I'd felt it and understood.
As words were not necessary they came as a natural flow. We consoled and carried each other through that very dark and lonely moment.

A precious memory in my heart is when he told me: 'I feel safe with you. I can tell you things I've never shared with anybody'. It meant so much to me.

So we lay there on my bed, emotionally so close, holding hands. Cried some, laughed some.  Remembered and shared so much. A lot of the time we just stayed in the moment not needing any words.

And, just to mention to people who don't know me, or the man who I’m talking about, he is the most loving, loyal and dedicated husband to someone I know - this was an emotional connection warmly accepted by his wife. As such, invaluable.

We weren't napping together but I'd say it was as close to this quote as it gets.

I will miss you my friend. The children will miss you too. 

But that's life and so it goes sometimes It's all okay. You were and will remain important to my little family. 

Having said that. You carried me when I had absolutely no strength to carry myself. 

Remember how my whole body shook at Kalle's funeral? I would have literally fallen if you and Annika hadn't held me from both sides. That hard wooden bench...

Beyond that worst day of my life. you alone came with me to face a person and a situation overwhelmingly cruel. I simply could not have gone through that alone. You held me physically together as I collapsed, cried, you held my hand and then you held me, and pulled me through even that. So many final farewells, on so many levels.

But you were there. Not one person of my family was, you were.

I don't forget.

Be it whatever, goodbyes as it is, just know you always have my love.

And if you ever need anything, me and my boys are always here for you.

You know I speak from the heart.
