”You will forget me, the love we once shared
Has vanished in the attempt at disguise
The dreams we once knew can’t be repaired
It’s gone with the light that once lit your eyes”

And yet, lest I forget, love is an outpouring unconditional 
Does my judgmental tirade, relegate love to a trade
Seeking an echo that amplifies clinging yearning origin
Signalling that I dwell in the past memories, living in denial

Oh dear soul, friend and companion of long years by my side
Feel by touch vibrational, imbibing my virgin seeds of love
Do employ not, narrow filters of ego spawned deluded desire
Instead, go in, within into your heart, where my arms beckon

Love is a divine fragrance, enriching, vivifying and enabling
Each time like the first time, making us feel complete 
Love alone is, nothing else is, magic within in renewal
Dear heart, with attention softened, feel love within glisten

All love begins with self-love, for we cannot share otherwise
Dear soul, plunge into the vibrant void of joy in fullness 
Light refracted through a prism cannot be imprisoned
So feel free, my love, if it is now time to say goodbye
