I searched for you in the trenches...in the ocean of rubbles, I found you

I searched for you in the trenches 

In the rubbles, I found you 

Going back and forth like a pendulum 

Going all over as in a state of hypnotism

I quest for you, I crave your presence 

I can never have enough of you.

In the trenches the search navigated 

In the ocean of rubbles, I beheld you.

Your soft skin like fine pearls 

Your bruised scars so beautiful

Your face fine like crystal 

Your scales hidden beneath the wreck! 

You are wounded and broken 

Love will heal you, make you beautiful!

Now that I found you, I won't let you go!
