Eternal Love. Poem by Majid Zubedi

If you are forced to be away, from me;
and Heaven decides that I live forlornly.
we haven't loved just for the first time;
if recall centuries back, you ever being mine.
how can you forget those days, O! My Josephine!
when you conquered my heart and lived in your dream.
it was hard to live a day without you;
I sent love-letters, even from the battle of Waterloo.

you mean more to me than anything of the world;
I didn't mind if never became King Edward.
I abdicated the throne and became Duke of Windsor;
but I qualified the exam of lovers.

do you remember that golden day;
when I sailed to your way.
and came from Rome to meet you;
everyone's Cleopatra, but I know she was you.

One day a girl rose up from the surf of the sea;
do you remember, who was she?
your name was then Aphrodite;
since the day you are known as goddess of beauty.
I was Ares and lived on Mount Olympus;
our love turned other Olympians against us.
and they abdicated and parted You and Me;
it was their mistake, they must see.
how many times they'll separate us to rove;
We both are believers of 'Eternal Love'.
