Does this "dedication" sound correct?

Hello.

I am writing a short novel that I wanted to dedicate to a close friend. This is it:

"All the words in the world aren't enough to describe the beautiful person she is, nor the amazing person she is becoming."

Does it sound correct? What's bothering me specifically is the word "nor". I feel it's out of place. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to improve it? I was hoping to keep it short and simple.

Thanks!

You have good sense! The pairing should be either... or; neither...
