The 23rd Birthday Project. Day Six

JUDE NZUBECHUKWU AKONAM

Today's write up is dedicated to the love of my life. A beautiful man who has shown the type of love I have always longed for. I pray for many more years of pure bliss.

Jude, you are like the sun,

Under your gaze, I bloom.

Days pull me deeper in your love

Ethereal, rare, and true.

Nubian king true to his roots

Zealously passionate, he shoots

Undeterringly at life’s trials.

Beaming his light effortlessly,

Exuding the aura of a deity,

Charismatic to the level of divinity,

High and low seek him out to

Understand his ways and

Keep to his side.

Withholding nothing from him,

Unwilling to leave his light.

Against all odds we stand,

Kindling this fire we share.

Onlookers marvel as we clear

New road in places no one dared

As we reach heights untried,

May our love not grow bland
