Time to Part, My Love 

Painfully today, I say goodbye to you, my love.
There is not a day or a night,
I will not be thinking of you. 

You are everything that I ever wanted in life.
Your gentleness, tenderness, warmth and love!
Your looks, your silliness and your class! 

We both got caught up in a forbidden love.
A love so beautiful but unacceptable to others!
A love where any decisions will be yours to make! 

For you see, I love you enough to set you free.
Because our love is both tearing us apart!
Me being free, you being with obligations! 

Never think for a moment that I do not love you.
For you see, my lonely nights without you hurt.
You are so beautiful to love and yet so painful. 

If only we could have met when we were both free!
But as you know, life is not that simple.
I realize that you have so much to lose. 

Deep in my heart, I will always remember you.
Deep in my thoughts, I will always linger for you.
Deep in my soul, I will always feel your loss. 

I now say goodbye to you my love, I wish you well.
Perhaps, if you are ever free, you will find me.
Just know that deep in my heart,
you will be my everlasting love. 

Since I Lost You

Since you walked away from me,
day after day, I think of you! 

Still missing you, still loving you
still longing for you. 

Although our love was not meant to be,
sweet memories of you are still fresh within my mind. 

Not a day goes by where I do not see your face.
Nor a moment goes by where I do not miss your smile. 

Remembering the love that we once lived!
Remembering how deeply you touched me! 

Remembering our laughter and our bond!
Remembering the joys and the dreams of a future with you! 

Now that you are gone, I feel sadness deep within,
memories of you will never die nor fade. 

I am grateful to you for the times you brought me happiness.
I am also grateful to you for showing me that I was worthy of you. 

For, no matter how two people love each other,
there comes a day when we sometimes have to say goodbye. 

Circumstances of life are sometimes cruel and unjust.
Thankful that I have known and found love, even though it was lost! 

I have lost you, but never stopped loving you.
In my heart, you will always live no matter where you are. 

True love only comes once into someone’s life
and you were my love. 

Although you are gone, sweet memories of us
will always linger within my mind. 

I will remember our joys, laughter, love and sorrows.
I will remember your beauty, your eyes,
your silhouette and you smile. 

For, you were my beautiful dreamer,
I will always love you deep within. 

For, you were my special love,
I will always dream of you. 

I wish you happiness.
Just know that you will always live deep within me,
no matter where you may be. 

From a love you once knew.
Farewell! 

Love of My Life

I want to express how deeply I feel for you.
But no matter how I try to put it into words,
the measure is unlimited when it comes to you. 

You have brought more happiness in my life
that I could ever have expected,
more than anyone else on this earth. 

When I am with you, I feel alive and secure.
You are my pillar, you are my strength. 

My feelings and emotions are entwined,
like a soft and gentle concerto
flowing through the deepest part of my inner body and soul. 

Your eyes reveal the love within you towards me.
They display the lights of fireworks into the night sky,
sparkling and glowing in every color and display imaginable. 

Your smile invades my mind
with softness and sensuality of your gentle lips,
like the caressing waves upon the shore. 

Your voice is like the echoes of nature,
like the calling of the wolf searching for its mate
in the most poignant sense of love. 

Your touch upon my skin
is like the rushing river
that awakens every part of my body. 

As our bodies join into one, the flow of our love is captivating us
into a moonlight serenade, our thoughts escape together
into the most intimate and passionate moment. 

You are my life.
You are a blessing sent to me from heaven, my golden angel.
Your unconditional love brought out a side of me
which I did not know even existed. 

In my heart, I feel as if we are the perfect diamonds
shining into the night just like an eternal flame. 

I thank God for directing us onto the same path
so that our crossing solidifies into perfect harmony of lovers,
never meant to be separated nor being lost,
now that we found one another. 

Now, I get down on my knees and ask you:
Will you marry me? Love of my life.
For, without you, I am incomplete.
