You donʼt know now, but soon enough youʼd know I wonʼt tell you “I love you” but show you that I genuinely do in ways that might beat your expectations.

You're probably too young for this but I want you to know even from a tender age, the value of things and not just their prices.

Darling, your sojourn here might not be as smooth and cozy as youʼd have expected it, but itʼs the tough times that teach you whatʼs most important in life.

A few words of correction might hurt you a whole lot nonetheless itʼs better than kisses on the forehead which will lead you to ruin

Your patience, strength, will and abilities will be tested by those who donʼt even know half your story, donʼt give in. Remember the nights I told you resilience is indispensable.

People will come and go, Family stays till the end of eternity and good friends, for a really long time.

Thereʼs a greater power, I donʼt care what they teach you in philosophy, God is sovereign and He created the universe.

You're too damn handsome, too much passion and energy is being invested into raising you for you to be a ‘fuck boy’. Respect the women and men in your life.

Trust your journey and pursue your dreams. Donʼt let anyone tell you ’you canʼt do it' , not even me.

When it seems like others are going way faster than you, believe things will happen for you at the right time and increase your faith and patience.

Lastly, after Iʼm gone, I want you to also leave a legacy that would not be forgotten in 100 years

these kind of musings are best done in the silence 

silence of the sea side or the silence of midnight

because it comes with too much of reflections 

on a lot of times when I missed it.

I lost my way entirely, I knew I was self destructing

but the pros of it wouldn't let me think of the end.

I was sinking so deep I couldn't even gasp for air anymore 

but you came running down, walked on the water 

to where I was exactly and gave me a hand.

you saved my life.

They tell you a lot of things but it'd break me to tiny bits if you go on believing them

like when they said you couldn't make it to the point you're at right now

because you didn't seek any significant help from them.

You should know by now, its inherent in humans to bring others down.

They cut you with such hateful stares, because they think you have it better 

if only they knew the sacrifices your mother made to make you look that good

they didn't see the part where you cried your soul out because your shoes were

worn out and your clothes faded and washed off.

You should know by now, nobody wants you to be better than them.

So I heard you let go of your sorry past and decided it was time to embrace a beautiful beginning. Thank goodness, all of that negativity didn't get you into thinking you were not good enough, because my darling, it'd break me forever, if you lived your life on their false applauses. 

You should know by now, you're good enough to set your goals and achieve them.

The aura your presence brought 

Was butterflies to my belly

I couldnt have thought of a better soul to share my hopes and aspirations 

You were the one i wanted to tell the good, ugly and bad news to

I longed for you with every inch of passion i could muster

You were my haven. 

I knew i was on a roller coaster 

But i wasnt expecting the ride back down to be so comsuming.

Debilitating.

You helped me attain unimaginable heights

Showed me the depths of passion i could dig into

You Swallowed me whole.

I loved you, you loved me 

But you made cracks in our walls

Bringing our abode to an abrupt end. 

It was sad and painful

I loved you all so deeply

Too deeply for your fickle mind to bear.
