Another day’d just silently moved on

Seemed like the flower had just bloomed this morn.

Was it his footsteps in the garden

Touching the flower and my heart in turn.

Another evening’d just passed by in silence.

Seemed like the flower had already, near the tree’s roots, fallen.

Was it his laughter tonight so warm and comforting

Under the moonrise, touching my heart’s feelings? 

Sometimes, I thought that love’d long been forgotten

With the evening terrace holding yesterday’s sunrays.

Oh Love, although tens of thousands of miles away

My longings for you’s like in the old days.

Life’s transient but I still keep on waiting

for the dusky lights to come, counting each day’s ending.  

Sunlight had promised to be here another sunset

The moon has a rendez-vous with you, but have you returned yet?
