The love story…

                           

I waited for so long,

Perhaps to have a long enough history,

Upon which my tale, tales,

Just for a short while future,

Would reference on our dinner table.

I lived each moment for that one dream to come true,

When time, so precious a gem,

I conspicuously used it unsparingly because of you,

Waiting patiently and longingly for that moment,

A moment for us to sit together and talk of the future.

I counted on the seasons,

To be a witness fourfold,

For a culmination of a choice well taken,

Obviously, due to undisputed faith,

About this, so longed for a union.

Today, I sincerely fold myself into this cold chair,

Not to retort to such a foul fate,

But just like a ritual,

To offer a sacrifice of all we ever thought to have,

Because it too was a good and blessing act.

I won’t mind if we still lived the dream,

But most of all,

I embrace tomorrow to give us another chance,

To build a more than union. An eternal treaty.

End.
