You Were Part Of Me Past All Borders Poem by Gert Strydom

The world we live in has nowadays got great danger
and with it many people have got terrible fear,
while you and I accept divorce as reality

and to be away from you is very difficult to me,
where so very much I want to be at your side.
The world we live in has nowadays got great danger

where I want to protect you against each pain and sorrow,
as you was a part of my soul, my thoughts and my flesh,
while you and I accept divorce as reality

From destiny's impact nobody is spared,
Russian war-crimes bring anger to my heart.
The world we live in has nowadays got great danger

and away from you I do remember every word and gesture,
also the things that a person reads in mere expressions,
while you and I accept divorce as reality

but do perceive something more in the scope of it,
as unsaid, as pain in the heart, the thoughts, soul and spirit.
The world we live in has nowadays got great danger,
while you and I accept divorce as reality.
