Sipping from the well of sorrow
withstands an unusual life cast.
Sad rivers and sifting sand remain
tuck away this tragic river
apart from the entire world.
Tears stream down my chin
a liquid flow of unending love.
A waterway radiates pure splendor.
Isn't it frightening to adore...
something death may reach?
A frightening thing for...
loving, longing, dreaming, being.
Under a willow tree...
might lay weary love to sleep.
Your vitality lifted my spirits
your chuckle often buoyed my mood
your feelings brought me haughty joy,
to put everyone on the trail of spring.
When I ween back, I feel inane bliss,
it's a story of kindness and love,
for love is a noble deed...
a sacrament, a divine insight...
to love what demise has swayed.
I planted an elfin orchard,
in a corner of my heart,
it was my sanctuary,
a place for everything I loved,
music was sung, and flowers bloomed,
fine stars, like dew, clog it up to the brim.
Torn foam rose and was hauled away
Once the wave fades by a surge of water,
but it was never flawless
right up till you walked inside.
I had to modify my daily life,
from that day on, you were taken away
back to your home, which is nothingness
I got used to the stillness
I had to talk every time I sobbed
I learned to cope with the discomfort
yet, recalling you keeps you close to my heart.
Life is so challenging without you,
I feel peace now that you are in eternal bliss
I love knowing that you feel me
But coping with hardship is tough to diss.
with eyes that may endure,
and fingers that may delight hands,
still, you might be for your swooning partner:
just a whisper.
