Once in Love I have once fallen in love with you, the traces of this wonderful, yet, wonderous feeling may never, vanish from my soul. So hopelessly have I once been in love with you and, silently I fight with my cowardishness and bear the pain of jealousy, only to once more, behold your gentle sweet smile. May my feeling never disturb you again, and may it never add to your sorrow. I have once loved you so tenderly, so deeply, and I wish someone will just love you as I once have. - James The beauty of nature is displayed, not through itself, but through the creatures dwelling within its bosom. |
