This poem was written when I had difficulty describing someone I admire. Anything I wrote, it wasn’t good enough. I realized no words are good enough. There’s an X amount of words to describe how wonderful the person I admire truly is.
The pages of my journals are suffocated with every detail of your loveliness
Starting with something simple
Like those freckles that rested gently on your skin
That smile that radiated sunshine
Those eyes that gleamed with kindness
That dimple that revealed your happiness
Or something a bit more complex
Like that beautiful soul of yours
Your strength
The way you managed shined after all of the storms you’ve been through
Your heart
The way you gave even when you had nothing
Although the English language allows me to choose from such a variety of beautiful words to describe your greatness
I have come to the conclusion that no amount of words
No matter how beautiful they may be
Will have the ability to accurately depict the loveliness that makes up every atom of your being
You deserve your own vocabulary
A vocabulary made up of only the universe’s most breathtaking form of diction
You are the universe’s most divine soul
