Where My Heart Kneels Before Your Name
My beloved,
In a world where countless stars decorate the night,
I searched for a light that could understand my darkness
Then you arrived
Not like the moon that visits and disappears
But like the sky itself
Becoming the reason every star had meaning
I do not love you with words alone
For words are too small for what your name does to my heart
I love you in the silence between my breaths
In every prayer whispered when no one is listening
And in every road I walk while wishing you were beside me
They say love makes a person weak
But loving you has made my soul brave
Because even the distance between us
Cannot convince my heart to forget the place where it belongs
If destiny gives me a thousand lives
I will search for you in every one
Perhaps in one life I will recognize your eyes
In another I will recognize your voice
And in every life
My heart will recognize you before I even know your name
You are not simply the person I love
You are the peace I was searching for
The beautiful answer to questions I never dared to ask
And the home my wandering soul never knew it needed
So if the world ever asks me what I treasure most
I will not speak of gold
Nor kingdoms
Nor the stars above the desert sky
I will simply say your name
Because some people enter our lives like a moment
But you entered mine like destiny
Forever yours
Until the last star forgets how to shine
