The Day I Said I Love You



Kakaako Park was a witness of our pledge and guaranteed moments.
If for one day we forget that we are meant to love each other eternally,
That for any reason, at any season, we don’t know each other again,
This place can bring us back warm memories and life yet again.

On the 24th of June, we were gazing at the sunset,
Sensing the cool breeze as drizzles cuddle our spirits,
We clinched on each other’s arms and felt secured,
Carefully whispered, “I don’t want this time to conclude.”

I was so abandoned by your first love these past few days,
But I realized, everyone has a first, a second, or maybe a third.
Your first may not be your last, but maybe your last may still be your first
But what’s more important is the affection that binds the both of us at this time.

Oh, my dearest hubby, you’re the best man.
Your smile, your voice, and your eyes inspire my sensible heart.
I hope and I pray that no matter what obstacles may come to pass,
Still, we trounce them steadfastly on each other’s arms.
