Love Poem: The Love Beyond

The Love Beyond

The path’s forlorn
I am crying

Turned between two worlds,
Life and death
To the far beyond
A land of no return.


Our love would yet blossom
Like the lily flowers.
Our heart’s is entwined
Filled with memories of you.

I would wait for you
Thousand years and counting
Nature would testify.

Death is pain they say
But your love surpasses it
The pain of leaving you behind
Is my cry.

As the creator finally calls
Your perfect picture was
All I could remember.
