I tried to find the road,
the way to get to you,
where you are waiting,
I can't say,
I called your name,
an empty echo
called back,
it was my voice,
repeated thousandfold,
no trace, no love,
of you
in any sound.
***
Are you so far
that you can't hear
or can you see
but don't care to come out,
is love abandoned for a while,
forever on this breath,
away in thought,
melted from soul,
pondering on a branch,
daring another leaf
to fall before the end,
to fly believing there's a way
only to learn it's gone,
too late.
***
How will I know
I should move on,
touch orchard and stay
under different shade,
is it too early
to feel that you are gone,
are you doubting the words,
have you forgotten song
completely,
dwelling into another home,
not ours,
not your own,
stranger in love,
parted in forlorn heart
you wanted shelter and came out
in thunder,
pouring rain.
***
I try to see sunshine again
beyond this storm, there is another path,
your steps won't be there
to hear or follow,
I will go on,
in faith,
we may yet see each other,
in dreams, in life,
under blue mountain sea,
if you remember me,
call out,
and I will answer
seconds apart
lifetimes away
parted bridge
come together
at last.
***
A winding twilight tells me
it's goodbye,
time to rest and look to the sky
have I lost anything,
were you truly mine
for this life?
***
I yearn to see your face again,
soul fears, hurt, and wishes
to feel that morning dew once more,
to play, to be,
to know there's so much time
left to have happy home,
island of thoughts
inside an ocean
of endless love
for us.
