Goodbye...My Love

Poem:
Goodbye My Love


You came into my life
Like a Phantom in the night
With the smile in your heart
Never looking back
Never knowing why.

I vowed to love you
Love you forever
Turning the wind of time
Into the world of ecstasy.

I clipped my wings to your beauty
Warmth the inner sanctum of your being
Caressing the moment within you
To the zenith of eternity.

We shared the same feeling
To broaden our horizon
Thinking that someday
Wonderful things will happen.

Dreaming the same way
As dreamers often do
Hoping that everything
Will shine upon us 

today...
tomorrow...

Life is what we make it
Others may say
Knowing that destiny
Knows no boundary.

Good things may come and go
Keep the good at least
Like the balance of fate
That never fails.

I felt the earth trembling
Together we fall
But you always remain
True to our love and promises.

Time changes
And our love dwindle
That even Cupid
Can never regain at all.

So darling please listen
To our hearts talking
Open your mind
And be with me again.

Do not think of the future
Live your life at present
Enjoy the blessings
That God had given.

Come back to me once more
And cherish the love 
That brings happiness
From me and forevermore.

Feel the beautiful memories
That once we shared
Blessing our life
Into such wonderful thing.

At last my love
Give me the last goodbye
Because I will leave forever
On this tearful world of mankind.

Fernando, Carpe Diem: Poetry form with a "Seize the Day theme." I caught a glimpse of that in your poem when you wrote, "Do not think of the future Live your life at present Enjoy the blessings That God had given." Your poem is beautiful. Always, Dane
