Friday morning,
Words do fall short when I am trying to express my feelings in this written language. But anyway come to Daddy and listen to all his confessions. From the very first moment we crossed paths, I felt a connection that surpassed the ordinary; It was magical how our souls entwined, like strings on a musical instrument we aligned. they say real recognize real; it was my soul that run to yours on that day, i recooo... Aghh??????? a story that cannot be understood. There is one thing that is certain and true; Your presence is a constant source of comfort, just like a blanket so cozy on a day so chilly, wrapping me in warmth and reassurance, a feeling so golden, Rosey ??. Sthandwa, As I reflect on this ongoing journey, I can genuinely say I am grateful for the beautiful memories we've created together. Every shared experience with you feels like a page from a storybook, written with love and laughter. Je t'aime (i love you) more than words can express. Through you, i've experienced true love; imagine you stayed by my side during my toughest days, saying, "through thick and thin, i am not letting this bond break but i want our connection deepen," and instead of leaving you offered me a comforting shoulder. You've seen me at my best and held me during my worst, and your love remained a constant. I owe you alot. You trusted me with your plans since you believed in me that us together they will come to pass. With you, I've discovered the true companionship. It's not just about the grand gestures, but those everyday moments where we share dreams, fears, and laughter. Consider how you understand me without words, and how you support my aspirations with unshakable belief. You are not just my partner; you are my confidante, my biggest cheerleader, and that only person who sees a Champ in me even when the world whispers "Loser". As i continue this journey, With you by my side, I am confident that each upcoming page will be filled with love, growth, and shared adventures. I already cherish the chapters we are yet to write. Our love story, my favorite book.

XOXO
Truly yours.

Yousef Alfil Poem
One of the poems from my chapbook #IT'S GODLY
The howling winds depicts no hurricanes
The sound of rains tapping on the stones is no noise
But a reminder that in the fields,
human silence predominates,
In the fields time stand still and troubles distill
Birds hosts with lullabies to comfort and heal
As flesh decompose, a beetles' meal.
Rest and forget! The world is cruel
The gap is undefined, the bond undescribable
Reading the epitaphs reminds how temporary life is
Holding close to the souvenirs reminds how good yesterday was
Crying for you reminds how chaotic the world can be.
But in the fields is where serenity is
Rest still, freeze till
We shall and we will
These boundaries will fade, be erased
And in that beautiful canopy, a mystery, we will enter
For in it there is a life again and forever.

Yousef Alfil Poem
You didn’t come with fireworks,
no loud knocks on my guarded heart.
You came gently, like rain easing into dry earth.
I had built walls, thick and tall, thinking silence would keep the pain out, and in that hiding, I called it “strength.”
You never tried to tear my walls down.
You simply waited outside, your hands open and your heart steady.
You didn’t demand a change.
You didn’t ask me to be more than what i was.
And somehow, without trying, you melted what life had frozen in me.
Not with violence but with your patience Mzanga.
Mzanga, you are a proof that real love doesn’t shout or force;
it stays and slowly makes room for everything to bloom again.
It’s amazing how you never tried to fix me.
You just stood beside the mess I was, and somehow, that made me want to be better.
Not for you,
but because you reminded me i was still worth the effort.
You noticed the parts of me I tried to hide,
the way I flinched when people got too close,
the way my laughter sometimes felt forced.
And still, you chose me every day without questions.
You made peace feel possible.
Yah is wasn't perfect but atleast it was real.
Mzanga, you are not just a proof, you are the reason my heart beats softer now,
the reason I believe love doesn’t have to hurt to be deep.
If there is a miracle in this life, then it is that someone like you, loved someone like me until I could love myself too.
