Too Late To Cry

In my lonesome dusky life you came like a meteor 
dazzling the ink of my desolate sky from where on
a full moon night I saw you appear veiled in the
silver dust, its radiance sparkled in my heart with
the glimmer of love when sailing in the deep sea 
of your aquamarine eyes my mesmerized mind 
weaved the tapestry of fervent dreams that dazed
me and took me blind in a trance to reverie where
I saw you fly away on wings of cloud to the edge of
night. I didn’t know when my fragile heart splintered
but when the dream broke I realized it’s…

time to rise from dust
find new sun beyond the night…
it’s too late to cry
