Whatever The Future Might Bring (Rubiyat Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

Whatever the future to us might bring
I still do believe I have got something,
something of you do remain in my heart
and about love it does constantly sing,

where without you my life remains empty
but still in my thoughts our times I do see,
where in all of this there is great bliss
as if you do remain right here with me

but yet by acts of destiny life goes on
and without you my heart turns to a stone
while with you each day is carefree and alive
and to me you are the only lovely one

while lingering stays each passionate kiss
and I do look out for days full of you like this.
