At the dawn of our relationship, I believed in unaltered sincerity

At the dawn of our relationship, I believed in unaltered sincerity,  
When skeptical voices foretold the end, I found stars of hope in my cosmos.  
Before the vow, my soul was both storm and calm,  
And I chose you, in the rhythm of ancestral drums, to stand by me.

On the sacred day, I wore the white of purity and promise,  
And a dress of freedom, for my wild part.  
The flowers gathered by Venus, a covenant with the earth,  
And a veil of mystery, woven from a daughter's dreams.

On the path to our shared altar, in Cupidon chariot,  
I felt history and the future sketching my course.  
The steps up to the town hall, a pilgrimage into the unknown,  
At the beginning, I believed truth would be my only shadow.

At first, I had no wish to conceal any syllable of the heart,  
When you accused me for the first time, you stirred silent waters.  
I believed in the tales told of the past,  
But discoveries turned my heart into a battlefield.

The first scream in the silent night broke the wings of love,  
I knew where you hid the signs of darkness.  
I hid my essence in a sanctuary far from you,  
Initially, I believed in the unrestricted purity of the word.

Yet, among the echoes of parting,  
I began to weave a cloak from silences and shadows,  
A sanctuary where light and darkness weave their destiny,  
Every sigh, a page in the book of my life,  
And love, an epic of the soul, lost among constellations.

Among the ruins of hope grows the garden of relinquishment,  
Every fallen petal, a dream lost in the night of eternity,  
And in this dance with absence, I learn to find refuge within myself,  
To rediscover my essence, lighting my path to unseen heights.

In this mystical odyssey, where truth and illusion embrace,  
I learned that love, in its purest form,  
Is a river flowing toward an unexplored sea,  
And true liberation comes only when you free your soul  
In a flight towards the endless horizons of existence.
