In love’s embrace, I find my way,
A heart devoted, come what may.
A princess crowned in sweet affection,
Yet, beggar’s doubts, a fleeting reflection.
Moments of surety, love’s warm embrace,
Yet shadows linger, casting a trace.
Who’s in your heart, confusion murmurs!
Can love transmit a fleeting memory?
My thoughts revolve in a ceaseless dance,
Caught in a spell, a lover’s trance.
I wonder whether I exist, even for a brief while, in your thoughts.
Is it naive, the words I share?
In love’s language, I lay them bare.
No grand decree, just simple and true,
“I love you,” my heart whispers to you.
