I seat in the bathroom, one of my favorite space to get out of my skin and be in sync with me.

There I sat and  I looked straight in the mirror.

There you are once again with that beautiful smile.

Did I ever tell you that your smile brightens me?

I look into the mirror and right into your eyes

Your dark brown eyes tell me the stories of your life

They shine through the experiences you’ve had

Your eyes tell me there are more adventure and conquests ahead.

So once again I choose you, to continue the adventure

You are my heart and my strength

You represent my vision

You arrange direct and orchestrate my songs

You are  an embodiment of my thoughts

You are my language , well articulated with clarity

You walk my walk, talk my talk

You do my dance, and how I love our dance.

You tell my truth

You tell my stories on a daily basis

Through the fears and many doubts

The anxieties and uncertainties of life

You remind me of who  I am

And what I am here for

You call me fearless

The Nubian  with a fearless heart

Even in my fearfulness

You remind me of me!

Thank you for being me!

Again, and again, I choose YOU.
