Farewell

The ground that I tread




Holding 


Your little finger


I bid good bye


The sights 


Of mountains and fields


I saw sitting on your shoulders


I turn a blind eye


The air I breathed


Lying on your chest


No longer 


Sustains  my life


The sound 


Of your heart beats


Are no longer


My lullabies


The sights there


Fail


To show me


Your face dear


The winds 


Do not carry


Your voice


Sincere


The whiff of air


Still blows smooth


But lacks


Your scent


So how can I


Call the land ours


When you are not there


To hold me tight


We left it together


You forever


And i chose


Never to be there ever
