Never Goodbye

I lament a dove that flew away
She left a rhyme a verse to stay.
Wrapped in starlights delicate thread
On my pillow next to my head.

It said goodbye and did not know
Goodbye could eclipse a rainbow
In misty mist and teary seem
In colors of her hopes and dream.

And as I read it made me sigh.
Her misinterpret of goodbye
Dissolving of the rainbows bright
Disappearing from her sight.

She said the shadows would remain
The glow would always haunt, sustain
And she would listen each new morrow
Winds that carry yesterdays borrow.

I sorrow in the deepest gloom
The passage of the rainbows bloom.
There's nothing that I would not give
To touch our moment in relive.

The door to my soul is ajar
And soul to soul is never far.
