The pain of parting

Truly, in all this world,
In all the time that has past,
Events, images raging fast
Never have i tasted 
A honey so sweet
I long for the day we meet.

Ten years past
Nothing did last
Save the high flying mast
A blast from the past?
Slowly does it sail
Ever to blow, forever on...

I do remember,
The countless days i spent,
All of them well meant
Ne'er did i imagine,
That i had a treasure unspent
And then in a flash you went.

Wither can i run
To get you back??
Your memory lives
But surely all things die.
Boundless is the pain
A farewell does cause,
Unimaginable, the loss.

Yet, i  must really say,
That know the philosophy, i may
It is useless to bay at the moon,
A parting is but, a bitter spoon.

Yet, Ever does this river go on,
Heralding the arrival of a new dawn
Every parting thus done,
Shall see the rise of a new sun.

And so i must say,
Though you be no more
Through time countless
You shall endure.
And then, only then
Will my pain bear fruit
O one no more....

Barriers

Sometimes i feel,

Like there is no love,
lost between us.
Nothing to end this torment,
nothing to ease the pain.
I see an invisible wall built
amidst us-
No tongue to my feelings,
A mute witness
to the drama of fate...

Times were when
I was with you,
And you made me feel whole.
Every moment spent
with you, my love,
is worth far more
than the price of life itself...

I know not what happened,
I know not the way,
for i walk in the dark
without your light
to lead me on,
here i stumble,
and then i pray...

Too many things have happened,
There is no looking back.
For seldom have i seen this,
lonelier than hade's crack.
I wish to be whole again,
never so incomplete,
but without your Midas touch
To be so, is asking too much...

You will not be mine,
for now, or forever.
To hope so, would be
my mistake, but my love
I choose to hope
and keep it burning until
my life, i give up.
For what better way is there
to say goodbye,
than with your name on my lips
And a final wishful sigh...
