Beau, beautiful, schön, hermosa, belissima,..!

"You were the one, the one I most wanted 

To give me comfort and company 

It was only with you that I dreamed of walking 

Everywhere and who knows elsewhere? 

Perhaps marry

Oh what I went through, just for loving you 

The saliva that I spent trying to change you

 But your world was stronger than me 

And not even with the power of music, it moved

Even though I knew you didn't liked 

I sold my ruby ring

To take you to the concert 

In the Rivoli

Only you were the one I most wanted

Beside me in the concert that day 

Together in the darkness, holding hands listening to 

That song always crazy louder and louder

But you didn't you stay even half an hour 

You didn't make an effort to like it and you went away

From you I learnt a great lesson 

You don't love someone who doesn't hear the same song It was on that day that I realized 

Nothing else could be done for us

My passion for you was a fire 

Without wood to burn"

Oh what a simple picture, a photograph, can do...
Bringing on memories, memories and feelings, and times gone by...
More, bringing on what could have been...
A different live, other choices, unknown outcomes...
And yes, love can survive a long time: 10, 11, 12 years or more.
Or is love just an illusion? Is it just passion? Or lust? A simple fancy of the mind?

Whatever, whatever it is, was or may be...
I wish I could be, On that picture, With you
A simple picture, a photograph, stirs emotions still...
