Oasis of love—
delight of my heart!
Timidly,
emerging from my memories…
How am I to keep you with me?
You belong to times,
I no longer live;
and no longer,
am I the one you knew.
You are like some magical dream,
I keep slipping into, and out of it;
We are two parallel lines,
which sometimes,
unpredictably,
intersect in some intersection
in this old town,
which knows us so well…
Where every street,
building and garden,
sea-breeze, carry
the memory of our love…
Where every emotion lived,
persistently,
is lurking around every corner.
Then we rejoice for a while…
We are growing old, you and I…
This life,
has taken so much from our dreams…
And, should the day come:
I shall know you are gone.
May we live long: even in such agony;
That I may hear from you,
on that ethereal frequency…
That you exist somewhere,
close, breathing the same sunshine.
We are both waiting for blossoming,
in the garden of our souls;
to flourish: even for a while,
some spring delights
in our hearts—agonised
with so much love,
and desperation.
