Things I Don't Always Know How To Say
I don't always get the words right. So let me try here, slowly.
I appreciate you — more than my they're all just excuses to hear you laugh ever show.
I admire how you carry so much love inside you, quietly, without making a show of it.
I miss you in the smallest moments. A song. A I think of you every single time it rains now. A cafe table with one it's yours. it's always yours..
I find you unfairly attractive, and I'm done pretending otherwise.
I respect you — your mind, your boundaries, your stubborn little heart.
I'm happier because you exist. That's not poetry. That's just a fact.
Whatever this is between us — it matters to me more than I know how to say.
So I built you a took me longer than I'll admit, and it was worth every second instead. I hope it says what I couldn't.

A Letter For You
Happy Birthday Aahi ❤️
I hope this year brings you endless happiness, beautiful memories, good health, success, and all the little moments that make you smile.
No matter where life takes us, I will always be grateful that you exist.
Thank you for being you.
I don't know how to write letters. I only know how to mean things. And I mean this: you have made my days softer, my laughs louder and my heart a lot less careful. Turn nineteen slowly. Let it be gentle to you. And whenever it isn't — I'm right here.
The one who loves you, zonayed ❤️

don't worry, it's a good one.
No matter how many birthdays come and go...
You will always remain someone incredibly special to me.
Happy Birthday, Aahi ❤️
Happy 19th Birthday, my special girl. 🌸
