My Friend Has Gone
My friend has gone
this time, faraway alone
Sadly
nothing has changed
the moon still dangles on space
waves break with foamy faces
rain drops on green pallet
the robin gorges on strewn millet
But why does my heart ache?
an emptiness resides in silence
sometimes I murmur with no spell
Life goes on, they all say
but it's hard to digest
My friend, I won't see you again
an anguish, a morbid pain!
But you will be in my memory
in my mind, till my journey ends
So long! be tranquil and get rest.
