Not a Goodbye
On the inside, I hide my pain,
On the inside, I'm drenched by the rain,
Gloom pervades my chamber,
Mine is an intermittent slumber.
I still remember your kiss,
This I thought I won’t miss,
I'm wearied by my soul's tempest,
Yearning for a day of rest.
Why did we go apart?
Tolerance desired to play its part,
Loneliness overcast my nights,
Melee shields summer lights.
Saying goodbye hasn't walled us,
Despondency spreads like moss,
Let’s sheath our swords,
Bind our hearts with relentless cords.
