Notes About The Poem

Eternal Beloved

- collaboration with LU LOO -


Sweetheart, you are my perpetual connection,
My alleviation found in perfection-
Bound by love and affection

Saturated in loneliness were you-
I knew the pain of loss and despair you carried with ease;
Black ravens plague this existence,
Yet you stay with me, longing for my hopelessness to cease,
Descending onto my grateful knees-
I sense your essence in the breeze

The wind blows, and gusts prevail,
Intense obscurity of the calamity I faced before you attains-
Emerging from the dust I was found
Weeping in the forsaken land of my desolated heart’s remains;

and...

As the tempest rages in warm rains,
Your genuine adoration still sustains
A million fairytales tremble at us,

They know how our love does outshine with flickering light-
Sounds of swift ivory doves cry out,
Fleeting into the ebon night; for our love loses not insight,
Never cursed or full of deep blight;
I embrace you…you hold me tight

For I am but a woman craving to be near you for all of eternity-
And I shall feel this pure affection or you, my beloved…eternally.
