This is what I want to tell you...

**The Way I See You**
*�" Jessy Jacob ❤️*

Sometimes I feel
Your nose is too big for your face,
Because I see more of it
Than your lips.

And when you smile,
When you speak,
It is as if your nose smiles too �"
Leading the way
Before your words arrive.

The other day you had a cold,
Your voice soft,
Blocked and gentle,
Like it had to find a narrow road
To come through.

I thought �" good…
Now he won’t drink
Until the cold is gone.

Then I saw you walking in pain,
An ankle sprain you never explained.
I wanted to ask,
“What happened to your leg?”
But you just passed the steps,
Through the door,
Rushing…
As if pain could not slow you.

I know you don’t hurt me.
But my Hindi hurts you.
And I say your English hurts me �"
Just to watch your tongue
Work so hard,
Speaking too much,
Meaning even more.

I don’t know what I first saw in you.
Maybe you were different once,
Maybe you hid parts of yourself.
But in a few pictures,
In small moments,
I saw everything.

Don’t reinvent your mischief now �"
You are an adult.
And though I may look different to you,
Though you have watched me closely,
I still see you
As great.
As good.

Laziness does not speak �"
It only stops.
But your body reveals everything.
The way you stand.
The way you rush.
The way you hide pain.

I did not select you.
I did not plan you.

But still �"
I say,
I am for you.
