Forever is not long enough
Amor éternel
And Eternity is too short
One more root dies
and my once strong tree is tilting
I don’t want to lean on you
don’t want to uproot your life
Another root faces strife
Still another cut late last night
I don’t want to be needing you
I need a good fall pruning
A winter’s sleeping
Awaiting the new spring dawning
Time to think of transplanting
as one more new root arrives
Fresh water
Blue skies
A light wind blows
from the distant place
i’ve long avoided
carrying with it
the lovely
healing
pleasantly refreshing
wonderful salty air
and I am there
I don’t want to be missing you
but I’m already feeling the bite
of your absence
I don’t want to lean on you
and yet
your sweet scent permeates
my soul
Though I’m still right here
WE
are already missing
It’ll soon be summer
Long will be gone
our many past Septembers
Standing right here beside me
the quickly fading
days
to be remembered
And I’ll cherish the kisses
we never had
I’ll cherish the wishes
that never came through
And from the bottom of my heart
piercing upwards through
TO YOU
this closing piece
along with this heart
will always belong
TO YOU
