For My Queen

by Jan-Paul P. Timbal
 

Even before that day we met
on that Station of blessed fate,
Seeds of heavenly affection was sown...
Now, to divine love it has grown.

Etched upon the stars is destiny
Disguised as chance and serendipity.
T\'was Cupid\'s quest to verily enchant...
and bind me to you entranced.

Upon this heart-struck pilgrim,
wings my heart was given.
On the sky below, I see stars strewn...
As I soar to a love made in heaven.

Mere words cannot express
the passion and longing I profess,
for my dearest, once, I had never seen...
Now my Love, My Happiness, My Queen.

That poem I dedicate to my girlfriend, LaReina.  I first met her on a WAP Chatroom and it really felt like I found someone I could share my soul with even though it I only knew her through my tiny cellphone screen. We enjoyed each other\'s cyber company and we were at first afraid of the day we were to meet. And then we finally met on a train station on that November afternoon... And we fell in love... :)
