Love story

 It is raining again outside
 I am waiting for our meeting
 The evening is changing by night
 And I hear my heart beating.
 I am looking at my clock
 It is really very late
 I can’t go to sleep
 I am ready forever to wait.
 I am thumbing my book
 But my thoughts are not here,
 They are really very far,
 They are with you, my dear.
 I remember these happy days,
 Your first kiss I still enjoy,
 And your big gentle hands,
 And your eyes, full of joy.
 We were so happy,
 Maybe, too happy or more,
 But the happiness was not long,
 We heard the sounds of war.
 We were apart and dreamt
 Of the peaceful life
 My remembrances and love
 Helped me to survive.
 I couldn’t even think
 About your sudden death
 Because you were my love,
 My life and my breath.
 The war was over. I didn’t have
 By my side anyone.
 I lived and enjoyed my life
 Looking at our son.
 And a miracle happened
 One wonderful day,
 The postman brought me a letter
 It was very strange, I should say.
 It was not very long, this letter:
 “Wait, I’ll come back to you,
 We’ll be again together,
 You’re my life and I love you.“
 It was your handwriting,
 I couldn’t believe my eyes,
 The letter was so exciting,
 Words of love sounded nice.

 It is raining again outside,
 I am waiting for our meeting,
 The evening is changing by night
 And I hear my heart beating.
 I am looking at my clock,
 Waiting for the bell,
 Suddenly a quiet knock
 I hear very well.
 I’m running to the door
 And opening it,
 I can’t believe,
 It is you indeed.
 You are wet and have a beard,
 But looking in your eyes
 I recognised you, dear,
 You are with me, it’s a paradise!
 We are really happy
 That we are again together,
 And our true love
 Will live in our hearts forever!
