When the sky was dark and the world was young
In the whispers of night two lovers clung.
Words of eternal faithfulness unsung.
The man went to speak softly air leaving his lung.
"My sweet Ofelia how we find it is early I fear-
The night drifts swiftly away on wings of angels for morn' is near-
But my darling Ofelia my dear childhood friend for here, tonight I shall appear!"
His words were sweet and loving and oh so clear.
That night, she waited the raven hair lass.
She waited for hours as they clicked slowly pass.
Her tears when mourn came glittered like crystal glass.
She waited for her endearing friend hoping he would arrive at last.
The nights went by as majestic Ofelia waited only to weep.
Then one night as she laid in the flower garden fast asleep.
The man that promised her -Manyana- appeared her darling Felipe.
He leaned down and pressed his lips against her tender cheek she awoke without a peep.
His eyes held sadness of which she wished she not found.
He whispered that he would try to be around.
She looked at him tears in her eyes as she frowned
He stood hesitantly when she made not a sound.
5 years later a beautiful young woman sat.
Her husband just went off to combat.
She looked down at her stomach which was oh so fat.
She tipped down her hat.
Her husband Alexander and her best friend Felipe left for war.
She chose to keep away from the man she had adored
Ofelia knew she couldn't have him anymore.
But she knew that her love for her friend was something impossible to ignore.
She wrote in her diary; the title L'indimenticabile Romance
