The first time in memory
I saw your face
I was mesmerized
by the the beauty
of your long black hair
and your sunshine fair skin.
That contagious presence
I wanted to be with
simply vanished for years
until one day I got your message
out of nowhere from the web
of a constellation just for us.
I thought it was just
one friendly encounter
that will just come and go
but I was ignorant of the fact
that the love that was planted
has blossomed to its fullness.
Just before this month of love
is over and gone
let me reassure
let me reecho
let me voice out
I love you Hun Marl.
While the world
keeps spinning
in all its games
of winning and losing
in all its wars
of grief and pain, I love you!
Now I know
love is not just love
in it's ideals and principles
but love is love
in the knitty-gritty
of our life together each day.
