'Not Yet...But...' Poem by Kevin Wang

'Not Yet...But...'



Everyday every night
i'll think of you
every step of the way
i'll still love you
days to say good-bye
times where to embrace this light
lives to say goodbye
but i'd say, “not yet”
cuz its still not time to go
not just yet
because
as long
as the chimes fall together
sounding as sweet as your voice
the metal that never rusts
as my heart to yours
the clouds on top of the chimney keeps snoring
as and peace and harmony comes in one
and your smile and light still gleams
then the eternal love will go on forever

times of hindrance
where I wish to embrace you
i'd go to battle
to put on the cloak and set off
to find you once more
seek the truth behind these masks

i'd know
you would be lonely and cold
I wish I were there
to hug you when you are cold
comfort you when you are crying
you'd be down
and i'll hold you back up
you'd be tired
and i'll let you rest on this dry grass
and give my coat to keep you warm
as I try to keep awake as the night passes on

i'd say “not yet”
not the time to say goodbye
cuz look what I became so far
and yet it's because of you

the final piano have not yet strung
these seams on my heart are not yet finished
this work is not yet finished
this music piece has not ended
cuz you are that last ping
the heart that makes it alive

at least keep this promise
cuz soon i'll come back
with you lighting the way
my fairy, my love
i'd say “not yet to say goodbye”
