We met at a time
when we were both facing difficulties,
after having being hurt
and shedding many tears.

One day we started talking,
learning, sharing, and growing closer
as we gradually become friends.

We started sharing more personal details
as we grew even closer.
Now we comfort and support
as we are each other's confidant.

Then one day we pulled one another closer,
shared a passionate kiss
and whispered, "I love you."

We discovered out of our difficulty,
that our silver lining was
meeting one another,
and the new love we shared.
