She’s my Abigail.

Tay, meet my best friend Karla. ( @kserpaaa )

Freshman year I sat in class next to this funny girl with wild dark curly hair. We instantly clicked. You know when you meet someone you feel like you’ve always known? That was Karla. In 2007, our sophomore year we watched you open for Brad Paisley, wearing our sundresses and cowgirl boots, screaming Our Song at the top of our lungs! We captioned all of our Facebook photos (wow that sounds so old 😂) with your lyrics.

Fearless came out the fall before our senior year, and it truly became the anthem of our lives during a season of uncertainty. We had no idea what the future held, but we held onto that album and it was a beautiful tie that bonded us. Night after night blasting Fearless nonstop with the windows down in Karla’s little white Scion, we proclaimed the walls that they put up to hold us back WOULD fall down. (And then we graduated) 🎉

Flash forward to 2010, one year into college and still not much of a clue what we were doing with our lives. Speak Now was the newest soundtrack to our lives, and Long Live became our official friendship anthem. Through the past few years together we had experienced our share of backstabbing, heartache, even mocking from dragons we didn’t see coming. We continued to lean on each other and learn the value of true friendship. In the summer of 2011 we got to see you on the Speak Now World Tour, and it was one of the most emotional nights of my life. Karla was going through a really hard breakup at the time, and we were seated near the B Stage. You started playing Last Kiss, and we just stood there hugging each other and sobbing the entire song. Then of course lost it again to Long Live. ♥️ It was so therapeutic and special, and a show we will never forget.

During the Red & 1989 eras I was away at college out of state, and we learned how tough long distance friendships are! We also learned that our friendship was solid, because it only got better from there. Karla is one of the strongest people I’ve ever met. She has been through so much pain that she could be the most bitter person, but instead she overflows with love. She takes care of everyone around her, loves people unconditionally and never asks for anything in return. She stood by me even when it wasn’t cool, and I am so thankful for her huge heart. She’s a WIFE and a MOM now, and somehow STILL finds time to encourage me and remind me how loved I am! Everyone deserves a friend like Karla. It would mean the world to me if she got to meet you.

Thank you for bringing us together through the power of your music and your heart. You have been such a huge part of our lives since we were 15. Now we’re 27 and in a whole new season, but we feel more connected to you than ever. We have always had the time of our lives fighting dragons with you and CANNOT WAIT to see you again together on the Rep tour!!

We will be at Metlife night 1 screaming and sobbing and shaking the night away!

We love you Taylor and we will always be on your side. ♥️
