Her

Do you ever feel like nothing you do or
Say will ever be enough?
Like you will never be
Smart enough, articulate enough,
Cultured enough, considerate enough,
Just plain enough...

What if there was some one out there
Who made you feel like you are enough?
One day she came along and
Changed everything...changed you.
Her gaze said "You are pretty enough".
Her laugh said "You are funny enough".
Her side eye said "You are sarcastic enough"
Without crossing any lines.
She slowly began to break down your
Walls and eradicate your inhibitions. 
General laughter became inside jokes 
And terrible, "y'all make me sick" pet names.
Friendly, "Hello. How was your day?"
Became "OMG I'm having a melt down"
And being each other's Iyanla.
You can't quite remember the day that
You began to fall for her. 
All you know is that you fell.
You fell hard and fast without ever looking back
And learned what it truly meant to love her.
Every smile, every look, every
Dimple and every freckle, 
You
      Love
              Her.
With her you finally are
Enough.
