Jordi Labanda

For my one and only...

You ask what’s inside this box I give you

It may not be enough, truly I fear,

To show that my love is truer than true.

So I ask that you keep reading on, my dear

I gave no perfume, no fancy dress

No jewels and such, for I’m just a writer

But I hope you accept this gift nonetheless

For the story of my life’s chosen you as its paper

Jewels will tarnish, trinkets will rust

And everything fade, but my love - time won’t kill

These words will ring on long after I’m dust

I offer you these while my pen dances still

All of my days, like this one’s yours to spend

And if I had one wish, they’d never have to end
