To my soul and my heart, love remained unknown,

Unseen, untouched, its essence not shown.

Until the day our paths intertwined,

And I met you, a love undefined.

 

Yet even then, I couldn't comprehend,

What love truly meant, where it would ascend.

It wasn't until our paths diverted, my dear,

That love's true nature started to appear.

 

The pain I felt, it pierced my soul,

But that wasn't love, it was a mere toll.

Love, I realized, is when I let you go,

To find happiness with someone else, I did grow.

 

And in those memories of you, I found bliss,

Moments that brought me joy and pure happiness.

It was then, my heart finally knew,

I was in love, for all the right reasons, with you.

 

Love wasn't just an idea, a fleeting notion,

But a profound connection, a true devotion.

The pain of shattered dreams, it did hurt,

But knowing you were safe, my pain would divert.

 

For you breathe the same air, in a distant place,

Living happily, with a smile on your face.

And in that moment, my heart became aware,

That love was real, and deeply rooted there.

 

I moved on, yes, but love remained,

A precious feeling, forever ingrained.

Memories, they suffice to fill my days,

To spend a lifetime in love's gentle haze.

 

And so, I carried with me the essence of love,

A treasure untarnished, like a soaring dove.

For in our precious memories, I discovered the truth,

Love is not just an idea, but a constant, eternal proof.

 

In the vast expanse of time, I now perceive,

Love's true meaning, my heart did receive.

And I know, without a doubt, it's true,

That I am forever in love with you.

 

Though our paths diverged, and life moved on,

The love I feel for you remains ungone.

For in those cherished memories, I did find,

The true essence of love, one of a kind.

 

And so, I carry this love, forever true,

Knowing what love truly is, because of you.

In my heart, it now resides and thrives,

A testament to the love that forever survives.
