Analysis of To someone dear to me

Herve Jean Louis 1965 (Port-Au Prince)



I come to you today
Because of my feeling for you,
the more I talk to you daily,
The more I anticipate loving you.

I come to you
As a man looking for true love,
you are a woman of good character,
I want to lay down in your heart.

I come to you today
Because we have so much in common,
Day by day, I discover something new about you
Our friendship is valuable to me.

I come to you today
With lots of expectations,
I have been looking for a good woman,
And I am glad to meet you.
