We started like most new lovers do on a journey of passion Me...hoping it would last forever never dreaming it might end Making love with one another was magical, blissful Strong, yet sweet with tenderness Such ecstasy and passion we shared, like none I'd ever known
Romance novels didn't compare to our story You said I was your goddess, your life's blood... So right, we were, we seemed to be so in sync Our hearts beat as one in a passionate syncopated tune I remember how we fit so perfectly - like two puzzle pieces
We met at an intimate café in Madera, a small quaint city in Italy I was lazily sipping chinoto and eating pizza napolentana I was so happy and excited - it was my first time abroad You, on the other hand...had lived there all your life A true Italian uomo, 'un uomo molto interessante" which means, "He was a very interesting man"
I looked up and there you were- sitting at a small table across the room Your gaze met mine as we smiled simultaneously at one another... We left together
I was feeling quite lightheaded from it all To my surprise, you took me to meet your relations a group of robust, happy, family members, gathered together for a partito- which is Italian for party It was kisses and flowers- we fell in love...so I thought But I was wrong, something happened
Then suddenly... You were gone - into the arms of another leaving me with a sad, forgotten bud of love, of you and me And... wishing you were standing where you used to be
