The perfect word.
honestly, i’ve always thought we met in high school.
science olympiad, when you stayed
until 6:00 pm and i asked someone, what
grade were you in and she said freshman
and i asked what team were you
on and she said c and i wondered what the hell
you were hoping to achieve.
and i'm also sorry that memory of rebel pen never
registered.
when we converse now, it’s only through
a gadget and i keep wishing that a
picture message could let me
see the ambition in your eyes, the
worries in your soul, feel the comfort in your smile.
perhaps the next iphone will do it.
there are these curious words called
adjectives that are supposed
to have the superpower of description,
yet you prove forever immune,
for the bad ones are wrong and the good ones
are inadequate and i
underestimate you every time i
put you above average.
because you win regional medals and destroy ko tests
like it’s nothing and vehemently
deny your intelligence the day after,
because your messages make me megasmile when i
imagine how you’d express :D in real life and
because you need to fix the cracks in
your mirrors that reject your beauty.
and i trust it only gets better as the world
watches you continue to surpass the
descriptive potential of one adjective
after another.
