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.
