un sueño de mi amor

when presented
with a love as undying
as yours for me,
a sensible man
simply drops to his knees,
as I have,
and acknowledges
how fortunate he is,
as I am,
to have such honor
bestowed on me;
I truly do not think myself
worthy,
but when you tell me
that your journey here,
in seven days,
is "to fulfill
un sueño de mi amor,"
I swoon.
know only that I feel
so blessed
to have your love,
the promise of so much
quiet, noisy, exuberant
joy:
te quiero, mi amor,
es verdad, siempre.

Wow.
