A very special woman you are, everything else we say always fall short to describe who you are exactly,
Only words that have never been said on your face, most probably describe how one feels about you, the admiration when we look at you.
But I would like to know, what are the exact words that make you feel valued and important to someone?
You've been told how beautiful you are, more than we can count, how your attitude complement your beautiful face,
That probably doesn't make you smile when you are mad, brings you comfort when you are at your worst.
But what are the exact words that transform your mood to your usual acceptable state, makes you feel complete even on bad days?
What are those exact words that will melt your heart even in difficult times, make you stronger, giving you a reason to stand up and fight harder?
I want to write them down, put them as a display in your favorite places to encourage you when you feel like you've tried everything, to use them as a reference hoping that will bring back that much needed courage to help you go on even when you're ready to give it all up.
“I too deserve someone who will always be there for me, wipe my tears dry when I cry”, you say. You believe he’s out there, probably searching for you. But what are the exact words that best describes the kind of man you're looking for? The one that will sweep you off your feet leaving you standing with only your heart to say “I love you too” The exact words that will make it easy for you to say “take me I'm all yours tonight and every night that follows after”
You're a loving brother, a very supportive husband, an awesome boyfriend, you believe. But I want to know from you, what are the exact words to use to make you feel better, when the bad acts of our fellow brothers get you labeled as trash, when they call you names irrespective of the efforts you put in to make the world a better place, when you stay up all night trying to find ways to bring that much needed change in the minds of our sisters and irresponsible brothers, but all that goes unnoticed
You work so hard to keep those lights on, put bread on the table at the end of the day. Somehow it’s not easy, but you always manage to stay strong through daunting days. You celebrate minor victories you achieve every now and then, appreciate what you already have. But what are the exact words to encourage you to do more of that constantly, to make you realize you've been right all along, because the world need more brothers like you, more versions of the husband you are, more matured boyfriends you trying so hard to be
Mom, dad, stepsisters, friends, neighbors, the community at large, you are not perfect yourselves, think before you curse judgment. Like everybody else, you make mistakes, make them cry, take them for granted, lead them to the circles of this unforgiving life but barely to the comfort of your homes. But all I need to know, what are the exact words to use to help you drop your ego and apologize when you are wrong? I want to write them down to help you realize looking at you before pointing fingers is wiser than pointing fingers first to realize later you’ve been wrong all along
This life thing hasn't been great to you, like everybody else, you cry sometimes when you feel like the world is way too much for you, sometimes when the overwhelming feeling takes control of your emotions but what are the exact words that make you realize how special you are, even with the beauty you once had seem to fade away?
I for one can tell you about the things I'll do, things I won't do, unfortunately, I can't prove it all right now, but time will always be there to prove it, to complete the patterns because actions mislead sometimes, giving misinterpreted signs. It might shake it up until it looks meaningless because time ain't no saint either. But I want to know, what are the exact words to use to start it all over again when time kills the spark we once had? What are the exact words to use to help you give someone another chance to rectify their mistakes, to make it all right again?
What are the exact words to use to cool you down when you angry, words to use to express how sorry I am about everything when I do you wrong, words that replace that golden smile, words that give that heart a reason to love and trust again through all the disappointments it has suffered? The words that move you from the edges of giving up to the circles of trying and giving it another chance. I want to write them down as a reminder when my voice can't say it loud enough to remind you.
What are the exact words that get you out of the warmth of your bed to look for that job, words that give you enough strength to cut the break short away from those books, words that encourages you to follow your dreams.
What are the exact words that keep you on your toes, drags you out of your comfort zone?
Words that removes judgmental and egoism mind, replace it with wiser and sympathizing heart
What are the exact words that make you realize you are not alone, even when you feel unsafe in the community, in the hands of those you value the most?
What are those exact words? I want to write them down, display them in your everyday thoughts, so that you never for a day forget them.
