She Is More

Awesome.

A word that has many meanings, but only possesses one notion.

A word that, by definition, measures up to: breathtaking, awe-inspiring, stunning.

A word that doesn’t even compare to her.

 

She is so much more than a single word could portray.

The simple way that she carries herself is beyond the point of mesmerizing, beyond the point of wondrous.

It completely surpasses all meanings of awesome and goes into the ballpark of “Kilig”.

There is no exact English translation of this Tagalog word, but the basic meaning is “the head rush or sublime feeling that you get when you experience something unexplainable.

Like running into your crush or kissing someone for the first time or hearing someone finally tell you they love you.”

It is that preeminent feeling that perfectly describes her.

 

She is more than any earthly title.

Her beauty goes beyond all cliches, surpassing even the great attraction of her darling smile. She is so much more than you can see. Or that my broken, beaten bones can carve into this page.

She is the earth, the sun, and everything that surrounds.

She holds the definition of beauty and proclaims that fact alone every time she lets out that sweet laugh.

She is more powerful than the words she lets escape those chords of serenity.

 

There is more rebel in that girls soul than I have ever had the pleasure of tasting in my own.

She is pure bliss.

She is an enigma of every pristine object known to mankind.

She is a kaleidoscope that, when looked through, you can only see the good in the world.  

She is like the morning sky, her mind a swirl of colors, so vibrant that no part can ever be dull.

 

You will love her so hard that you will forget to hate yourself.

She will make you want to get better, and you will.

Her touch will make you feel things that you haven’t been able to feel in a very long time.

She will be your storm shelter, protecting you from the tsunami of emotions that come rushing in from time to time.

When life gets bad, you will feel her hands, guiding you out of the darkness, bringing you to see the silver lining in all the chaos surrounding you.

 

Love is a complex emotion that has many subtleties.

But she will show you how to fall in love with yourself and with life, while you are continuously falling in love with her.

So to hold this perfect piece of art to any mere word such as awesome is undoubtedly outrageous.
