We could talk of the moon and the stars
Constellations and galaxies far apart
How you outshine even the sun
Angels wishing to be you
How flowers bow in reverence when ever you walk-by
Except for the jealous ones,
They envy your scent and wish they had your shine
Yes, if you prefer
We could talk of the rainbows in the sky
Doves sliding through the crescent of the African moon
We could talk of the world as if it belongs to Us
How history and literature
Failed to capture the essence of our love
Romeo and Juliet, Jack and Rose,
They tried but in the end they had to die
Except for the Chinese
Like Chang Er and Hou Yi
Our love is a tale as old as time
Yes, I could tell you anything
So long at the end of it you smile
It could be sweet, it could be nothing
But so long we are together, it will be something
Yes, we could lie to each other everyday,
Paint our lies white as much as we want
But as the sun sets before our eyes
Let one truth remain,
Absolute and true
That is…
Wait for it
I LOVE YOU
