You Leave – Never Will I Love
Forever and a day, I’ll wait for you.
Always, I will remember what we shared.
Towards you, my love, my ever-shining light,
I hold no resentment, ire, or hate.
The tranquil, placid peace for which I yearned
Here, as the light returns, I now can see.
The night is ending; nearer comes the dawn.
And yet, while I still hurt, I will press on.
With how I felt, with what you did to me,
How could you be so cruel and unconcerned?
What was the crime that I did perpetrate?
My light, my sunshine, turned my day to night.
You left me all alone, so cold and scared.
When you left me, my heart left with you.
Love, I Will Never Leave You
When you left me, my heart left with you.
You left me all alone, so cold and scared.
My light, my sunshine, turned my day to night.
What was the crime that I did perpetrate?
How could you be so cruel and unconcerned
With how I felt, with what you did to me?
And yet, while I still hurt, I will press on.
The night is ending; nearer comes the dawn.
Here, as the light returns, I now can see
The tranquil, placid peace for which I yearned.
I hold no resentment, ire, or hate
Towards you, my love, my ever-shining light.
Always, I will remember what we shared.
Forever and a day, I’ll wait for you.
Sam - Quite clever indeed. I like the latter better than the former, since it brings resolution to situation. The latter describes the situation and feelings associated with the loss in the beginning and then towards the end these feelings are accepted. But, I must say it is amazing that you could get the whole things to read well both forwards and backwards.10+ Keep it up. You are very talented. :) .

I would like to translate this poem
This is an amazing poem... Very well crafted... the mirror rhyme scheme... a mirrored thsonnet, and then that sonnet mirrored again, all with a message of love... truly wonderful.... Mike
