01 Young Love

Snow was falling on that cold winter day

I sensed no joy for my heart was empty

The sky grew dark with no glimmer of ray

Lost was I to a sweet dream memory

In those happy days you and I were friends

Running joyfully, playing on the beach

Walking in the woods, tightly holding hands

Bonded by the love that grew out to reach

It was your soft lips I first ever kissed

In a moment that felt like forever

It was your sweet smile I have always missed                    A Love Story

And waited for its appearance somewhere                    Soneta 004

 Girl of my dream, joy from my precious past                      Anglicia

 My feelings for you would forever last                                  AD 2002

02 Painful Love

I remember the day you came to me

Looking distressed, your smile showed much sadness

You were in tears, for you could not then see

Why our nations chose aggressiveness

Wanting to comfort I did embrace you

Under a cedar tree one bliss we shared

And with much love I gently entered through

Knowing it was fate which had made us paired

When you were far away love lingered on 

Even after your tear-stained letter came

A Love Story                            Painfully beseeching me to go on

Soneta 005                                 And forget you who could not be my dame

Anglicia                                         Yes, my love for you never really died  

AD 2002                                          Though to someone else you have now been tied

                                                                                                             [Back]

 

03 Gentle Love

A flicker of hope dawned in my sad soul

Accused of murder your man faced the law

Withholding some proof I could now play foul

That we might both resume our childhood vow

But you looked so sad that I would not dare

To see more pain in your pleasant face

That you were happy was all I should care

For the sake of love and its precious grace

When my new evidence set your man free

With misery I saw you overjoyed

Then what I once asked you now gave to me                      A Love Story

That final embrace you seemed to avoid                               Soneta 006

Softly you spoke like you did in the past                                Anglicia

 ‘I am so grateful for your gentle heart’                                     AD 2002
