Juan

Juan

A Poem by NelliKong

Juan, your name translates to God is gracious. That’s ironic because that’s all you embodied towards everyone. J means that you are jovial and full of positivity.  A spirit so warm that on the coldest and harshest of days you could make snow melt. U stands for being unforgettable due to the fact that you leave a deep impression. From our first interaction I knew the impact would be profound; even though we only known each other for a short period of time, your presence and aura has always been the same and consistent. A represents your accommodation, because of your concern with other individuals' needs. When I was in one of my darker head spaces I felt that I could reach out without being a burden. Like if I lose my grip on the ledge you would reach your hand so I wouldn’t fall. I felt the lump form in my throat and my eyes were like a dam that was about to be broken as I felt tears coming down my face. I felt like even if there was a warning of a flood due to my tears that you would help in my state of emergency and no flood would cause damage to the city. N stands for being noble and self-sacrificing. Juan you would give the shirt off your back to someone you care about just because you didn’t want to see them suffer. So to end this off Juan we both have shared sacred parts of ourselves and yet never visited Pandora’s box. Juan keep being you and keep rising to the top.

Seems like this person is forever giving of himself... he is utterly devoted to you and you to him, clever using the words in his name to signify certain traits; you mention Pandora's Box.... but hasn't come up yet... you never know what mysteries lay beneath....
Nice write

Juan sounds like someone everyone should have in their life. Very descriptive of this person's characteristics and traits. Since the writer has only know "Juan" for a short period of time, Pandora's box could be waiting for that pending surprise. Hopefully, not. Nice descriptive write. Temp

Great tribute to what appears to be a wonderful soul. I believe that there are those in this world that have just a a little something that attracts other humans like moths to the porch light. I know a few of those. Loved this!
