The Love of My Life

How I Met My Perfect Match

A surprise was waiting for me that day,

but I was distracted, lost in my daily life.

I couldn't suppose that everything could change

so much for me right away.

When I looked at him I had no doubt;

I wanted to be his wife.

He managed to immediately magnetize my heart.

It was hard to stand apart from him.

He was so handsome, so perfect, so charming,

so enchanting, so slim.

He seemed to be a fantasy.

But he was alive!

He was made for me.

I was more than delighted with his bright blue eyes,

his voice, his speech, his words, his expressions…

We were silently making obscure confessions

behind our smiles and gestures,

but pretending that we were merely polite.

He was better than I could desire.

I who never believed in love at first sight,

ended up believing what happened to me.

What an irony!

My heart was on fire.

I never felt that way.

There was a strong magnetic attraction between us,

a strange and strong connection

as if we had already known each other for years.

I was afraid to have an inappropriate reaction

and suddenly hug him,

even though we were strangers.

I was afraid of many dangers

and I was right for having so many fears

because I couldn’t control myself.

If he would touch me I would surely melt.

I couldn't stop looking at him

and he couldn't stop looking at me.

Wish we could be free to do what we wanted…

We smiled all the time.

We were more than happy because we met

and we loved each other.

However, our love was forbidden.

I couldn’t belong to him and he couldn’t be mine.

We didn’t have the right to fall in love with each other.

Our love story had a rough start

and yet a complicated sequel,

but it never ceased to exist.

We were sure we wanted each other as if we had kissed.

He completed me and I completed him.

We could read each other's thoughts

and discover what we wanted to tell each other,

but our union was impossible

because of our bitter reality.

Why didn't I meet him before?

One thousand obstacles we couldn’t ignore

turned our love story into a tragedy.

We couldn't have a love relationship like so many couples…

Until today our love is still alive and still strong.

So, perhaps now that the past is gone

everything can be much better

if we will overcome every shame and regret,

and put an end to our pain.

Yes, now we can begin again

and finally live happily together forever

as we wanted to do since the day we met.
