upendo is waking up every morning and that person is the first thing on your mind. It's when wewe would do anything to see them smile and it breaks your moyo so much to see them cry that wewe cry with them. It's when wewe want them to be happy even if it's not with you. upendo is when every song wewe hear reminds wewe of them and every place wewe see makes wewe think of somewhere you've been with them. It's knowing that wewe want to spend every dakika of every saa of every siku of every mwaka for the rest of your life trying to make that person understand exactly how much wewe care. It's when wewe do little things just because, it's being sad when wewe have to go. upendo is when wewe know that wewe can't wait till wewe get to see that person again. It's knowing that it's zaidi than just a physical attraction, but something so much deeper. It's when wewe don't even notice other people in "that" way cause you're so focused on that person. It's accepting them "as is", faults and all. It's when they have little quirks that make wewe smile and its when wewe just can't get enough of them.
upendo is knowing that wewe can't explain how wewe feel in words so wewe spend every dakika just trying to express it with actions. It's zaidi than making out au sex, it's those moments just holding each other and knowing that that's enough. It's the little inside jokes and secrets that always make wewe smile. It's wanting to do something special when they're down. It's wanting all of your Marafiki to know them cause you're so happy to be with them. It's when you're proud of them and support them in everything they do cause wewe believe in them without a doubt. It's something wewe can't express in words but in actions. It's knowing that you're truly HAPPY cause wewe mean the world to someone and they mean the world to you
