Tribus Mensibus

Tribus mensibus hodie fuisse praeteritum

Three months today,
that have been past,
each one ethereal,
better than the last,
A day before this day, three months ago,
I felt not this way, but nevermore so...

At the story in your eyes I shivered-
Exanimandas,
At your very touch I quivered-
Quod animo fingi non potest,
With your kiss I was enthralled,
Inaversibilis,
With your voice I was lulled,
Mellifluis,

From the depths of my sorrows,
by you I've been woken,
Leuandas
Knowing in all my tomorrows,
your love will be spoken,
Aeterna,

Under stars at night, three months past and a day,
I lay awake without sleep,
the world seemed a blight, another dreadful night,
the hours seemed to creep...
Little did I know, what the next day would bring,
my thoughts, woeful, bleak, and accursed, fearing a day of jealousy,
I simply prepared for the worst...

Nisi noctem est exhibito, iustum coram aurora

And there you were, in red and lace,
Unicus,
Red hair, amber eyes, such a lovely face,
memorabili risu,
In that moment, I knew you'd be mine,
Haud dubie,
To hold, to kiss, those lips sublime,
Paellax,
Intelligence unsurpassed by all that I've met,
each word entwined with erudite,
Seducta, per scientiam
your mind of passion, aggressive, yet artfully delicate,
I could find no fault, not in the slight,
intricate perfectum,

Three months today, you became my life,
gave me a path to follow,
you expunged my sorrow, destroyed my strife,
filled the void, of a soul so hollow...

Three months today, yes three months have past,
my amare I entreat you they not be the last,

for now as we pass from February to March,
my days of ecstasy extend,
I hope to embrace you until the end of aeternitas,
all your pains I'll amend,
so awaken rested, with all my amare,
for all of it I do send,
forever Lauren and a day I swear,
I'm aeternitas yours to the end...
