The Way We Parted

Each time we part, I see your eyes
Frozen in a silent glance 
If traces I were to be blessed 
I would adore how well we mingle


The moon seems frozen in her guilt
The world dark in her awaking 
Faded all are parts of joy,
When winds blow shrill in their voices

The pain of passion is dejection
Of being together is a fear to part
And give me not the sick some gaze
They dull my nights to sleep forecast.

Hello! The earth echoes my ears 
The pain in same amount or more
And I have read in no men’s prose 
A line of bliss apart from tears

For on and on I loved to live
But where is life a part of joy?
When things of mine exchange with yours 
And fairly does all fade away

So shall we both, you and me
Exchange our soul and disappear
Apart, alone and both away
You from me and I from you.
