Good day to you all and Merry Xmas Eve!!
I have a bit of a request. I wrote a love poem that I would like to give to my German girlfriend for Christmas. Her English is good, but not great. And my German is ... well, not where it should be. Overall, I think she will understand the poem, but I don't want to take the chance that some of it will be lost in translation. I was wondering if someone with a better handle on German could provide some sorely needed help. The poem follows below.
Thanks in advance,
Anthony
Sometimes at night, when I look to the sky,
I start thinking of you and then ask myself, why?
Why do I love you? I think and smile,
because I know the list could run on for miles and miles.
The whisper of your voice, the warmth of your touch,
so many little things that make me love you so much.
The way you support me, and help with my emotions,
the way that you care and show such devotion.
The way that your kiss, fills me with desire,
and how you hold me with the warmth of a blazing fire.
The way your eyes shine when you look at me,
lost with you forever is were I want to be.
The way that I feel when you're by my side,
a sense of completion and overflowing pride.
The dreams that I dream, that all involve you,
the possibilities I see and the things we can do.
How you finish the puzzle that lies inside my heart,
how that deep in my soul, you are the most important part.
I could go on for days, telling of what I feel,
but all you really must know is my love for you is real.
