Sinditu,My Destiny

At first I feared to approach her
          She was mesmerizing to my lonely heart
          Not that I lacked words to woe her
          But because her sense of style was different

         Yes,I feared that she would reply "no!"
          And that thought would make me not to talk my feelings
         So whenever I met her I would quiet
         And my heart would haunt me in the night

        I sigh with a lot of relief
        Whenever I remember this eve of Friday
       When I pronounced my feelings to her
       I felt my heart leap with joy and was curious

       The answer was definitely positive
       Look,I feared to reveal to her for ages
       She had loved me for ages
       She wondered why I had delayed to speak it out

      Sinditu,my destiny I will love you forever
      I love you because you never looked down upon me
      Despite my background compared to yours
      Love is blind,they say
