For Better, for Worse
It all begun with a smile…
Love established
itself into our hearts,
Leisurely capturing
the bottomless veiled yearning for companionship,
Replacing the ancient
aches and pains,
Arousing sweet
pleasures,
Causing us both to
smile…
So effortless, so spontaneous,
Like magic,
Like a swift waft on
a muggy summer morning,
Like the rain drops
on the sands of Sahara,
Like, Like, Like
nothing words can explicate…
 |
The unexpected rush,
The coquettish
giggles,
The candid naivety,
The understandable
innocence,
The irreplaceable
joy,
The unfathomable longing!
Our eyes close and
our lips convene,
Our arms entangle around
each other,
Our hearts
communicate in a language only they understand, and
Our knees give in to
the chills…
We squander hours murmuring
those lines we share,
Hopeful that time
will revere this serenity
We get closer, nervous
to let any distance separate us
And listen to our
song…
“you are my one
more chance I never thought I’d find, you are the one romance I’ve always known
in my mind, no one will ever love me more, I only hope that in return, I might
have saved the best of me for you…”
Oh!
The splendor of these lyrics brings water to our eyes, tears
of love, tears of belonging, tears of peace, for finally we have found a warm comfortable
home to lay our heads.
