I don't know ...

I don't know if I really love you,

it's just that whenever you're away,

I feel alone and lost,

and devoid of brightness is that day.

I don't know if I really love you,

it's just that I don't really know why.

I think of you every moment,

and in my solitude, I sigh.

I don't know if I really love you,

it's just that I lose myself in your eyes,

I drown in those mystical depths,

and strange unknown emotions in me arise.

I don't know if I really love you,

it's just that I hate the silence,

that ensues when you leave,

though in your presence, it has eloquence.

I don't know if I really love you,

that's what my mind tells me.

Though my lovelorn heart doesn't believe it,

and this truth it simply refuses to see.
