For Christopher…
I usually don’t write thank you pieces or positive pieces for people, but its been on my mind for a while, so here goes. I hope it is well received.
FOR CHRISTOPHER…
I really didnt want to piece together words to describe how anyone should feel for you
To simply know you would never be enough, it’s hard to feel like you’re close enough to
Really completely understand you, but truth be told its the wondering that has us in a hold
So we wonder, until we cant wonder anymore, then we concede, realizing it’s an honor just to know
YOU
So I won’t just piece together words that rhyme to tell you how anyone should feel about you
I will simply say what I have to say, from me to you, and hope that they rhyme a lil bit too
You represent everything that is trustworthy in a man, if I could clone you for every woman I would
A gentleman with absolute reserve, I see you’ve learned to value ALL women as only a true man should
Exuding honesty and integrity with every word that you speak, there is no feel of falseness to your being
Intelligent and constantly learning, steadily evolving, creativity is what keeps your heart beating
As elusive as you are, you open your self within your words, and its there your soul constantly seeps
Onto the pages of the paper for whoever attempts to peer into your world, it’s open for all of us to peek
You paint magnificent masterpieces with your words, molding memories that you share with all who read freely
No admission fee to enter into Christopher’s world of words, it’s there that every bit of you is disguised secretly
There’s no parts of you so well hidden that cant be found discreetly camouflaged amongst your written words
You leave your heart open, your soul’s exposed if the message is recieved correctly by those who’ve heard
Or read your wonderful works, there’s something about the way you write that seems extraordinary
You make me feel as though my thoughts and the words I plot are nothing but EXTRA ORDINARY
But its your artistry I’ve come to see that’s awakened the deepest, most dormant parts of me
And for that I will forever owe you a huge debt, it was you who helped me see what I could be
If only I reached for my highest potential just like you, truly you are my greatest inspiration
I had been waiting for the train to come my way, not knowing I wasn’t even waiting at the station
Until I met and got to know Christopher… “lowkey” your creativity is my constant motivating force
I have become one of your biggest fans and anything you ever produce I’ll likely be the first to endorse
Even with the rarity of slight misspellings and the letters missing, all you produce is quality work
I may be nobody famous, but I believe in my heart you will do great things before you leave this earth
I take pride in knowing a portion of this brilliant man and even though it may be just a surface view
You’ve helped me begin my journey to find me again and for that… I truly thank you.
