Whenever I'm with you
I feel safe, I feel
like nothing bad will
ever happen to me.
I'm thankful for that,
I know that I'll always
have a safe place.

For all the times you held my hand
When I rode through the waves
When my tears seemed never ending
When my screams almost got you deaf

To the days I didn't want to talk
The days I forced a smile
When my nightmares woke you
When you held me as I cried myself to sleep

Reminding me how beautiful I was
When I looked like a wreck
Pushing me to achieve my dreams
When I felt like quitting

Celebrating my successes
Even more than I did
To the happy days
When we nearly suffocated from the laughs

Laughing at morbid jokes
So I wouldn't feel too weird
Watching sappy shows
Though you never liked them

For better or worse
You stuck it out
You never left
You braved it all
I will forever be grateful.
To those who braved it out through the tough times for your best friend, lover, family, relative... Whoever it may be may you never lack strength and always know we are grateful for each and every passing moment.

Memories of an old friend's drum;
rejoice as your paths intertwine
and leave an emerald mark,
like a ferry towards safer shores
to guide you between kin's ways,
planting the roots of clarity
where you'll grow with the rhythm
of a ready wan light.
Thank you to teachers past and present, even if it's just a little advice you gave 😁

A decent ring
A report
A non verbal plead
An innocent agreement
The silence of a connection
It is quiet
It is un loud
It is peaceful
It is calm
As with waves crashing upon the shore
The next day
It was still there
No declaration
Without expectations
The shore was once again met
With the force of its waves
The next day
No declaration
No expectations
You were there
I found Friendship
Don't look at your scars and be ashamed.
Look at them as a reminder that you are strong,
and that what you're going through will get better.
Don't be ashamed of your scars, as they do not define you;
things are sent to test us, to push us to our limits, but don't give up.
Just remember whatever you're feeling now will soon be gone.
Your worries will be lifted, and you'll be thankful that you got to see the sun rise another day.
I've been dreaming about you every night,
Zeal, an emotion I got whenever I tell it right.
Every moment of conversation feels like snap,
Not until the reality makes me realize that I miss you while bursting with a pop.

Lost for words because you always make time for me,
Oh gosh, can't resist the fact that you are here though literally you're not near.
Untold feeling of excitement because of you,
Ihh can't you feel? I'm officially missing you,
Enough dear, I am looking for the air to breathe 'cause this thing makes me blush here.

Bear in mind that even though we're apart,
Am here right inside your heart.
U're special without a comma nor a period,
This is a sincere statement with a signature labeled.
It's not a drama, knowing that you always make someone glad to see her smile.
Should I tell her name or just be mine?
Three, two, one, you're the only one.
Ain't beautiful but you make me fell in love with who am I just the way I am.

Fluttered for always having your patience and perception,
Endless eyes smile and a moment of heart attack 'cause of appreciation.
Remember that you can count on me,
Rocking your world and hoping that it belongs to me.
Emphasize the initials of every line,
Read between the lines.

"One last story daddy,

then I will sleep"

"Ok my little fairy,

Let this tale settle in deep.

She is an angel in disguise,

who is with you from your first cry,

regardless of your age,

her love for you will never fade,

She holds your hand while the pain is all around,

She wipes away your tears,

She is there to lift you from the ground,

her touch takes away your fears,

From dusk till dawn

when you are with her, your worries are gone,

There is a smile on your face,

It's because she has blessed you with her grace."



"who is she" i say,

"she is the rainbow,

which illuminates the sky after a rainy day,"



Every time I close my eyes,

I remember this story from the start,

"Mom. I love you from the depths of my heart."
Eid
Another holiday,
Different than before,
Tucked in safe,
Watching from afar,
While the rest of the world burns

Im thankful for the hurt. I’m thankful for the pain. I’m thankful for the lessons provided. I’m thankful for the low valleys. Thankful for the tears, confusion, thankful for the lack of.
Because without any of that, I wouldn’t have what I have now.
I wouldn’t be confident on all the levels I am. I wouldn’t be nearly as strong. I wouldn’t be as wise. I wouldn’t be able to see that I’m now on the highest of mountain tops, and STILL climbing. I wouldn’t be able to tell my good days from my great days. I wouldn’t know the feeling of relief, satisfaction, and comfort.
I am so thankful.
