Under the Lampost

Walking in the park alongside you.
Lake reflecting dusk of changing hue.
Unsaid words saying it all.
And there beyond the horizon the sun seemed to fall.
Entwined fingers envisage our soul's propinquity.
Twinkling starts conveying our love through infinity.
Under the lampost facing the water we stood.
Huddled together your head on my shoulder felt good.
Your silken hair danced with the  graceful breeze.
Enthralled by your beauty even the sylph you seemed to please.
Secluded and safe is how I felt in your embrace.
And how I felt divinity right in that place.

Now when I dare open my eyes,
I know you have left without any goodbyes.
And here I stand under the same lampost,
Shedding tears of the past, missing you the most.
