Eternal Love: A Journey Through Life's Radiant Gleams and Shadows

You stood by me through life's radiant gleams, calming the storms in my mind's dreams.

In solitude, you were my refuge, in crowds, my steadfast ally.

You were always there, so much so, I can't recall the days before you.

Not that they aren't in my mind, but I wasn't me, and life wasn't life.

With you, my feelings are simple, my thoughts need no filter.

My hands know you, my body seeks you.

Days fly by with you, while without you, seconds stretch into hours.

Happiness is sweeter with you, I even cherish our tears.

The quarrels are beautiful, and the reconciliations are my calmest dreams.

Yes, I love the lover in me more!

My love never ends, it grows;

Each day, a new love sprouts within an enduring old one.

I tend to the buds, leaves, and flowers,

For a flower without the sunlight of love, the water of passion, and the rich soil of memories will wither.

I won't let go of our sacred love, a commitment of heart, soul, body, and feelings.

I protect our best, the love between us.

Sometimes, I'll improvise, sometimes plan long,

Or find new ways to renew my affection and express my love.

I live from you, to you, in you.

We became "us" when we couldn't tear our eyes away,

When our heartbeats synchronized,

When my head found its place on your shoulder,

Our bodies in each other's embrace,

My lips on yours,

And so it was!

May we never forget the value of what we have, the life of our souls, the worship of our love, and being together.

May our strong bond never become mundane, youthful regrets, fleeting pleasures.

May we never be alone in our togetherness, lose our refuge, drift apart, become blind, deaf, or unwilling.

May darkness never paint our fate, and separation never seep through the cracks of our home.

And may we never be the cause of our own downfall,

For that would be our curse.
