My heart is full of love for you, to the point that I doubt my doubt, and I am certain that my love for you will fail... If your love is a illusion for a few days; I will live it and breathe it as love even for a few minutes... and enjoy it even if it is a lie, I will believe it and cling to it! I am in desperate need to cling to you, to hold on to you, and to drown in you, even if in the end you are not mine... Although I love everything about you and wish for you to stay... so that the happiness of my life in you is complete. Loving a man like you, this is the beginning... to fulfill my heart's desires even for limited days or months; for I breathe you with love... my desire for you is very sincere; with all my mental strength I explain to you the desire of my heart with your heart... I haven't listened to any romantic song before writing to you, and I won't drink a bitter drink to get drunk before your eyes... I want my song and my glass with you, and now let her speak.
