The  first letters of every line spell out her name, MELODIA QUINTE DOMINGUEZ. Every letter in the name is written in my blood, for that’s how I love her.

Music is your name, best friend forever Melodia,

Enchanting,  magical as the moon upon the sea;

Love makes me touch the  caroling moonbeams,

Over the   rhythmic   moanings of the sea;

Did I hear God’s music, Melodia?

Innocence  reveals the music of  your charm  

Among  God’s  scattered splendors  you disarm.

Quietly steal into my slumber,  Melodia,

Unleash  the  ghosts of  unsung songs

In my withered heart entombed.

None but a beautiful soul like you

Touched by the music  of the moonbeams

Enthralls my heart to sing again.

Do you know how much I love you?

O, make my lovenotes  weave a fairy’s wand

Melting the winged years of our youth 

Into the sepulchre of dreams forever gone.

Notes we exchange in  joy and sadness 

Get inside my heart as I laugh and cry

Uniting joy and pain into a  bigger world of

Enchantment  as  on my restless bed I lie

Zipping  the  cries of youth as they die. ###
