The One I Truly Love:

I was looking for wonders that a broken heart could not explain.

I was looking for genuine honesty that my tortured mind could feel.

I was looking for happiness but did not know where to turn.

All these desperate desires would probably never materialize

Wouldn’t I meet your irradiant beauty,

Your incomparable and blessed person!

My desire for true woman’s love wanted to express itself

But did not know how,

Because you were not part of my life.

I have heard expressions like: Eternal love! Happy life! Love forever!

And in my abused and deceived mind

 I thought they only exist in fairy tales

That would never come my way.

I was craving for such wonders

Not knowing what wind, what mysterious breeze would bring them my way!

I never knew that such feelings could so easily be expressed

Since you, Object of such ecstasy,

Was never part of m y life!

The taste of sincere understanding and soul communion

Were never parts of the meager ration that my heart received!

A genuine smile, an imperceptible look, a slight brush of the skin,  

All these little things so normal and dear to a romantic heart

Were never felt or experienced because you were lacking.

While you were non-existent to my life,

Every single one of these little things was missing.

Oh! How happy I am to find you on my path.

Oh! How grateful I am to finally experience

Peace and serenity at your side!

These few days in your presence helped me

Understand only one thing:

My heart was still craving for love and affection,

My soul was still anguishing after true love

And had to wait for you: the materialization of such dream!

Thank you for being:

The One I Truly Love!
