Happy Returns

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Each in their box, we lay The same inseparable us Still many of miles away Voiceless and out of sight Out of memories too From darkness into the light Our messages passing through One day we shall return In full ignorance who we are Life’s ethereal, it cannot be learned It’s the light of the extinct star Though we are dead and gone The combination we made Is remembered and will go on In the most beautiful way “Is that you?”, I expect to hear Oh my darling, please tell me more Who we were, I have no idea But I think we have met before.
