Analysis of Sweet Words are Never Enough

Ibrahim wisdom 2002 (Katsina)



"Sweet Words are Never Enough
If I can be very sincere
for just a minute or two.
I have something so rare
I will like to share with you.

I simply want to let you know
that you are always on my mind...
The scarce seeds of love you sow
prove that you are one of a kind.

I wish we have met before we met,
my story would have been sweeter...
With you, there is nothing to regret,
each new day can only get better.

You are the definition of true love:
a sterling star in the darkest night,
an amiable angel sent from above...
to lend a light and make things right.

A lot of friends have come and gone...
many more will cleave and leave soon...
 after all has been said and done,
I want you forever as my beloved boon.

You are a more than a friend indeed...
standing with me when things are rough
proves to me that you are a rare breed...
For you dear, sweet words are never enough
