Smiling in the Shadows

I wish I could find you. You know who you are, slender, unpretentious, kind, one of the laughing lions. You too get lonely sometimes.

Rub your back, help look for your cat when he gets out, make you soup and bring tissues when you have a cold. Know when you're low and how to cheer you up and encourage you.

Make a good cup of coffee just like you like it, can cook anything from nothing, know your favorite flower, and hide one under your pillow so you'll find it when I'm gone.

Could help mend your broken heart, if needed.

You sympathize with why I'm happy and want to spend time with me.

Have my own life. But want you in it.

Could this be it?

Are you thoughtful, loving, circumspect, and individualist in your thinking? Do you laugh at the negatives? Are you your own person? Jokingly cynical, but cheerful, benelevont, and casual? Can you predict chemistry through mere words? Could this be real?
