Love Poem: The Great Departure

The Great Departure

The great departure
Eyes as cold as ice
Mouth as sharp as sharpen blade
Yet your heart is drenched with tears
You didn't notice that, did you?
Your own language betrays you
Precisely it's more melancholic that way

What is a greater honor than sacrifices
Leaving footsteps and leaving loved ones behind
No one will remember
Except those who are affected by you
The shadows will take its leave
Once the body is one with the soils

As the golden leaves fall
Time will past by
As much as the heavy snowfalls
The white cold road will be heavy
The trails you left behind will be gone
As the time goes the heart will heal
Bashful smiles will be placed
Sunshine will shine its brightest
Crepuscular rays will come again
Sorrows will lose its melody
