Father time has long since lost
The flower of our youth
Leaving trace of pollen’s dust
And broken shafts of truth

When torridly we ventured,
Life’s tempest blew her horns;
We heeded not the warnings
Left by piercing thorns

Not unlike the morning dew
Refreshing nature’s thirsts
Gleefully we danced!
Oh joyous songs of firsts!

Our path at times was narrow
At times we went astray
But steadily through friendship
Again we'd find our way

And though from separate gardens
Of varied mellow score
I loved you as a sister
And loved you ever more

Since, the hourglass has sifted
Countless grains of sand
Across the country’s distance
Are mostly thoughts by hand

But, I thought our love was sealed?
Its end I didn’t fear,
Made through silent promise,
'Twould last beyond a year

Now, stubbornly, I hold you close,
A place within my heart
Yet, you leave it empty,
My tomb unkempt and dark

To know the reason given,
Implores my heart to you!
But quietly I suffer
Not knowing what to do

I feel the autumn coming,
With sadness in the air
And Summer’s fragile flowers
Are trembling by the pair.

I wish it could stay summer,
Yet, comes Winter’s flurry
Blowing our forget-me-nots
Lost! Their petals scurry.
