World Apart Poem by Dechen Doma Sherpa

Two celestial bodies burning in the same flame
Of eternal passion and fierce chase of love
The lovers tested of their chastity
Separated till the end of time, by some devious doing of destiny.


Worlds apart they shine with the heavenly blaze
Worshiped and feared to rule the ignorant slaves
Day and night made of their longings
One consumed by the zeal of yearning, the other radiant from the heat of her paramour.


The ageless agony of alienation has united them in soul
The distance their foe have immortalized their liaison
What was meant to be a sorrowful sad tale of love
Has been transformed into an exciting unending courtship, till they rendezvous again when the time stops.


Until then the two celestial bodies continues burning in the same flame...
