Time was a river
Separates both its banks.
We were towns apart
For the remaining days.
Seasons made it tough
To weep just for you,
For I had to be a son,
For my yelling mom too.
I had to bring her a maid,
A loving cook and a nurse,
How could have I shed
My tears of youth years?
There lies the college
Where our eyes watched,
Behind lagged the phase,
When the dream egg hatched.
No more tears to shed,
The black hairs turned brown,
Both of us are tired
With this heavy world's crown.
Now I pray my God,
To foster you health and peace,
All the fun and good,
luckand eternal bliss.

I would like to translate this poem
Very evocative of the years of our youth. Growing into adults is often painful even in the best of circumstances. I note that you haven't written a poem this year- I hope you are well, my friend.
