You spoke to me of love –
how it found you one day
unaware, unprepared…
How it made you otherwise, glad.
You told me of its wonders
and pitfalls, the kind whispers
That seemed – nothing then…
just sweet, but not beyond recall.
You narrated how, it took you by surprise..
In a world of miseries and tears
the sun could shine, manage to shine…
Bask in cheers, quiet comforts, momentous joys.
Love speaks from the stillness and quiet of the night/ http://www.rte.ie
In your story, you said
you have not known happiness till then.
And the hoping and believing in that thing –
so abstract, called future.
And it would have been real
life-like, even…
In its simplicity and plainness – –
You two were made for each other.
Love is not complicated, according to you
It sorts, arranges, filters; it distills
Puts things in their… proper places
Lovers beside each other – love, between. 🙂
The movie, Love Story, is a modern-day rendition of romanticism/ http://www.azcentral.com
Happy, happy New Year to all! Hope 2013 was good to you and 2014 will even be better… 🙂 This was written a good while ago, as part of my  project on romanticism in the Tagalog sites, an attempt am unsure if I could finish, ahaha. Keep your fingers crossed for me, guys… 😉
Let’s indulge the romantics in us, here’s Jessie J with We Found Love
and Francis Lai‘s Where Do I Begin? on YouTube. Thanks for the visits and the love, hope you’re keeping well. 🙂
