Don’t wait for a birthday or a goodbye. Type it messy if you have to. In Arabizi. In broken English. On a napkin. In a text at 11 PM.
It only needs to be carried. — Inspired by a seven-word subject line that hit like poetry.
And who is this for? Ya habib qalbi — “O love of my heart.” Not just a passing crush. Not a like or a swipe. The love of my heart . The one who has taken residence in the deepest room of my ribcage. The final phrase is what undoes me: yaghaly rwby . “You become precious to my soul.” thmyl aghnyt ya hbyb qlby yaghaly rwby
To carry a song means it lives inside you—in your chest, your breath, the way you walk into a room. It means when I’m silent, I still hear your melody. When you’re not speaking, your rhythm holds me.
Because love, real love, doesn’t need perfect spelling. Don’t wait for a birthday or a goodbye
Notice it doesn’t say you are precious. It says you become precious. This is love as a continuous, unfolding event. Every day, every small kindness, every time you carry another song—your value deepens. My soul wakes up and finds you more irreplaceable than the day before.
