Lost, lost in her eyes, I drifted.
Life wept, wept for my company.
Different paths, along one went life,
I trudged along the other, sombre and sad.

My heart believed, believed in romance,
Twin souls, another who hoped and cared.
The world’s sorrows, the sordid marshes,
One waded through to reach paradise.

Blissful walks, talks and moments,
Cheerful birds, joyous flowers, all alive,
Relishing the eternal spring,
Us together, together forever & evermore.

The world wondered about this ignorance.
Shook us, tried to wake us up,
The blasts, the shouts to open our eyes,
We blinked, caught sight of the world and smiled.
