Song of a Dying Love

Here I am standing
alone and so still
recollecting our memories...
the past I'm missing.

When I look up the skies
I see not the clouds
but your face looking down at me...
smiling.

When I look at the trees
I see not the leaves
but your long black hair...
swaying.

When I look down the water
I see not my reflection
but your lips reaching my lips...
kissing.

I turn around and see
not my shadow behind
but your body upon me...
embracing.

Oh, maiden of my life
I see you wherever I set my eyes
I feel you wherever I go...
but I am dying.

I will hold my last breath
until you return
and hold your hands again...
I'm waiting.

Still Longing

Suddenly, I remember you,
sneak into my memory without a clue,
found your picture in my drawer,
saw the smile that makes me quiver.

The eyes that are perfectly set,
the pearly white teeth,
the red pouted lips,
the face that perfectly shapes.

Am I still missing you?
My mind says no,
but my heart says yes,
for you still occupy a space.

The smiles that I missed,
am still longing for your kiss,
but never it will be fulfilled,
for you are already rested.
