This Is For You

{Mimi,

Hey gurl...  

...these words are affirmations

for you to remember in the ups

and the downs,

that you are loved.

as Mumford and his sons have said,

We can't move the mountains for you,

but we are here climbing alongside.

Stay strong,

smile,

This is For You...

My prayer...
This is for you.

In the moments of
    tears and fears
         and failings that you will see in years
              to come
                   are growing pains
              that make you strong...
This is for you.

In the motions of
    moves from a black and a white
         shaking and sizziling
              to the sounds of
                   tupac, beyonce and
              “you are my angel”,
This is for you.

In the mirror
    that changes its image from sexy beast
         to scared and naive,
This is for you...
My prayer.

In the minutes
    that slowly crawl in silence
         and force you to wait,
This is for you;
My prayer.

In the making
    of your life when friends are around
         you or are nowhere to be found,
This is for you;
My prayer.

When you choose to whisper something up to the sky,
    or not, and simply stay silent -
         no matter,
This is for you;
My prayer.

Weaving in and out of
    failures and attempts as a friend,
         are words that are for you,
    and you alone.
That they would silently
    wash over your soul like waves crashing
         upon the shores of distant seas
    to strengthen,
    to renew,
    to show you the
         beauty
         and importance
         of you.

For whoever up there that will listen,
This is for you,
My prayer.
