Hello Steemians,
Are you ready for a True Love Story? Well, I am and I am happy to announce that it is my story. Just to let everyone know now, I am 51 years old (Soon to be 52). I have been in several relationships and have been through the pain of loss when I was young and the dissatisfaction of breakups in my later years. You see, when you are young, you feel as if your relationships are magical and everlasting. But when we have more experience about life in our later years, we realize that not all things are as they may seem and that we take our downfalls as a new lesson in life.
I have made lots of bad choices in my life. I am sure that everyone on planet earth can admit to this as well. But, if we learn from these choices, learn how not to make the same mistake twice. Then it was a great experience. Now we can be wiser the next time around. When we are young, we cry and our heart will break a little. Not that this doesn’t happen when we are older, because it does. The difference is we heal much faster and stronger. And this is the truth if we love our self, have faith in love and have self-confidence in our self.
So I am in the most wonderful relationship I have been in all my life now. Her name is Vanja Åvedal and she is from Moi Norway. She lives in a beautiful forest named Åvedal forest that is owned by her family. There is a beautiful lake in the middle of their property that has (3) little islands in the middle. I do plan to visit very soon indeed. But for now, I am here in California because I still have a 9 to 5. I am sure a lot of you know about this. We actually meet online but since we have met in person, the love grows stronger and stronger every day.
She has always wanted to come to the states and now she does as often as she can. Her son David comes with her sometimes as well. He is 22 years old now. Every day on my breaks at work, we talk the entire time. I take pictures of my lunch and send to her (same as I share here on Steemit) and I take pictures of birds and flowers for her that are all around me all the time. I write her poetry often and always send her a message before I go to sleep every night. On the weekend, I sing her to sleep and we talk for hours. We share everything about each others day every day. And every dream we have is to each other and the adventures we will have the next time we are together.
I hope you enjoy the poetry. It was all written for her and the love I feel for her. The way I feel about her and the dreams I have for her and I every day. I believe in sharing the love so that it may inspire other love stories that will be created and nurtured.
This first poem is entitled “The Dreamy Love Story” by Jeronimo Rubio. A trip through dreams of beautiful places and adventures that I and my fiance Vanja will experience one day soon.

“The Dreamy Love Story” by Jeronimo Rubio
What is so beautiful about each day I wake in my life?
Well, let the dreamy love story begin now.
Let’s start from the beginning when I wake by your side,
A world of beauty and fantasy I endow.
Where you, My love and I spend wondrous moments,
Wrapped up in rainbow beams.
Riding on the winds of cool soothing airwaves,
Surrounded by cloudless schemes.
Where rivers of sparkling, rejuvenating waters,
Flow like our soul deep inside.
Washing away any sorrows that exist in our life,
Inviting our spirits to free glide.
Where grassy plains surround us with cover,
Keeping us hidden from harm.
Where flowers grow wild with an amazing sweet fragrance,
Dancing as if our eyes to charm.
Holding each other in an endless gentle hug,
With no reasons to ever let go.
Lying back with your head resting on my chest,
While I capture your smiling glow.
Softly kissing your lips as I melt into forever,
The sweet taste of a well-kept wine.
Like the warmth of the sun that you flow through my veins,
Making my world so divine.
Into the night where the stars light the grand sky,
While your eyes light me up within.
As the moon shines down beautiful beams of pure energy,
And your eyes put my heart into a spin.
The love you and I share through every magical special day,
Is something that will always live in my heart.
And forever my Vanja, queen of my world and my life,
You will always be my one and only sweetheart.

The second poem is about how I no longer have to dream because with her in my life, all my dreams have become my reality. The things I use to dream about having in my life are now fulfilled with her love. The places we go. The things that we share with each other. The way we can’t live without each other and how life would become dull, with no color if we ever lost one another.
It is rare to find this kind of love. We share enough common interests that they become grand experiences when we get to share them together. But we also have enough differences that we are amazed at because we get to experience new things together that keep us always growing in love more and more each day. New experiences are great to grow together. It is something different for the one experiencing the new and it doesn’t matter if you truly enjoy it or not. Because sharing these experiences with the one you love is the true experience and, it helps each one of us learn more about each other which is essential in any relationship.

“My Dreams of Forever are Now Awakened” by Jeronimo Rubio
Dreams are a blessing, a glimpse of the future,
A look into a forgotten past.
Magical places to visit or fantasies to create,
Carpet rides along desert paths.
Mountainous mystical forest needed to be explored,
With rivers of golden treasures.
Glorious jungles of magnificent wildlife to study.
Sailing oceans in all kinds of weather.
Adventures, fantasies, and dreams of someone’s life,
Beautiful journeys, every one.
But I have this all in a single smile, kiss or touch,
From the woman with whom I’m in love.
One look into your eyes brings a never-ending passion,
An adventure that is oh so grand.
A futuristic fantasy through the timeless universe,
Comes to me while just holding your hand.
A wild jungle adventure through the Amazon jungle,
Comes to me with just one of your smiles.
And a mountainous hike through an undiscovered forest,
From your touch that will take me for miles.
Now that we’re together there is nothing I can’t do.
All my fantasies have now come true.
All of this because I have your Love in my heart,
And I will, forever love you.
My beautiful Vanja, love of my life and soul,
Nothing for granted will ever be taken.
Because with you in my life I am now forever at peace,
And all my dreams of forever are now awakened.

This last poem is how we have not just fallen in love or how our love grows much more each day. But about how our souls, our hearts, and our lives are not two anymore, but only one. When she feels bad I naturally feel just as bad. When she is sad, I want to hold her to make her feel better but I share the sadness with her just as much. This is a true love.
There is no anger between us. Jealousy is just a word that we get to ignore because our trust for each other is immeasurable. We live for each other and there is nothing that we wouldn’t do for each other. God forbid that we would ever have to sacrifice our lives for each other. But if this ever did happen, we would graciously do this for one another. Our love is limitless and impenetrable. We have become one. No longer two separate individuals yet we share two aspects of life in one soul.
This poem is entitled “Now Together, We Have Become One” by Jeronimo Rubio – I hope you have enjoyed this love I share with you. And I wish and pray each day that all of you have this kind of love in your life today. If not today, then I pray it will be soon and last forever. Love, Jeronimo Rubio

“Now Together, We Have Become One” by Jeronimo Rubio
So many people in the world, but only two meant to be,
But which one is the right one for you?
Is it her? Is it Him? Will I meet them real soon?
Or will I meet them tomorrow at my school?
Do they live just next door or across the big blue sea?
Have I ever seen them before?
These are all good questions. But relax, do not search.
Because love is a divine search-less power.
If you seek you won’t fine. Remember love is blind.
Which means that it happens naturally.
There is someone for you. There is someone for all.
I already found my true love for me.
She came on the winds of love from far across the world.
And captured my heart tenderly.
She fills up my heart with a love I’ve never known,
And it sits deep inside eternally.
A beauty unchallenged. A smile without boundaries.
With the eyes of green emeralds of love.
Her hair, long and black like a luxurious silk gown,
And her skin so soft like the feathers of a dove.
Her heart filled with an endless abundance of joy,
And a spirit of strength unbound.
Support for both family and friends unrestricted,
And an angel of a mother now earthbound.
My beautiful Vanja, this is you without question,
And now that our life together has begun.
We once were two. Separate individuals far apart,
Now together, we have become one.
