Edward Ibeh Poet Lyric

Notes About The Poem

'The One'

"The One" is... 

someone who
     thinks you're beautiful, inside out
          from head to toe...morning, noon, or night

someone who 
     shoulders half your burdens,
          attends to the smallest of your needs 

someone who
     speaks the same language you do,  
          and helps you grow emotionally and spiritually.

someone who
     makes you feel good about yourself,
          loves and accepts you, no matter what.

someone who 
     giggles away your peccadillos;
          forgiving and forgetting them all

someone who
     is a person of faith; prays for you 
          in good times and bad; who's patient with you

most importantly
     someone who
          loves you unconditionally

Midnight Aurora October 27, 2019 at 5:38 PM I couldn't agree more. Some friends of mine need to read these words. Someone who will help you grow, who makes you want to be a better you, and who will hold your hand through your hardships. Sometimes people get caught up in drama and lose sight of what's important. So glad I saw this today. Edward Ibeh October 27, 2019 at 5:41 PM I'm glad this poem resonated with you, MA:-) Have a blessed day...
