True Love

One day a friend of mine asked me a million dollar question, "How do you know when you've found your true love?" I was astonished, more because I realise I've never really thought about it; but I started wondering, how do I know? Have I found my true love, even I'm already married by now?

But then I quickly realises that he was probably waiting for my response, so I replied, "When nothing in this world matters anymore, it means you've found your true love". Not a really bad answer, I thought, but I wasn't fully satisfied with that. So, my dear friend, I'll elaborate my answer for you.


When a trace of her smile instantly light up your world,
when you humble yourself just to make everything works out,
when you feel vulnerable but you embrace the feeling anyway,
when nothing scares you but losing her forever,
then you might have found your true love.


When nothing in life matters but her,
when all your problems have gone away when you're with her,
when there's no one in the world you'd like to grow old with but her,
when she's the only person you'd like to spend the dusk of your life with,
then you might have found your true love.
