Ad-Din studied her and kept quiet. He wasn't sure of what she was doing or what was going on but he didn't interrupt her. He was curious about what she wanted to say.
''I met someone today''
''that person wasn't you''
''that person reminded me of you''
''I met someone today''
''that someone took my breath away''
''that person though far away from me, caught me looking at him''
''I met someone today''
''someone who looked exactly like you''
''I met someone who made my heart flutter again''
''but after getting closer to that person, I found out that he wasn't you''
''I found out that, it was my illusion of you''
''I found out that, because I missed you so much, I have begun to see you in everyone I meet''
''but, sadly, they aren't you. no one will be like you''
''so, I wait for my spring to arrive and bring me, you''
''I wait for my spring, which is you''
Maria finished reciting the poem and spoke.
