Goodbye, My Friend

You came to my life,
Like nothing I have seen,
Once shy you were,
You became life itself,
Your passing brings memories,
Barely surpressed and overwhelming,
Brings tears and sadness,
Grief that clung to the air.

I never thought I could say this,
But I think I should now,
Even though we were never friends,
I hoped we were then,
Now comes the day,
I would have to let you go,
I shall cry for you,
I shall bless your passing,
I shall let you go in peace,
Goodbye, my friend.

Whispers

The wind goes by,
Then gone in a blink of the eye,
Whispers hung in the air,
As a Whistler sings its share.

Little girls hushed,
Speaking in small voices unheard,
Secrets of the whispers revealed,
Wounds of old finally healed,
Just as how it had begun,
In a mystery come undone.

Even though it's still a whisper,
Yet it's intentions are clear,
Each one is sincere,
Bringing delight to those who discover.

My Eternal Sunshine

When everything seems unclear,
All I could think of is you,
My eternal sunshine.

You hold me up when I'm down,
Standing by me when I'm tall,
Sharing your life,
With me in mind.

It is as if we know,
We belong together,
For always,
In eternity.

Darkened Memory

I have awaken from my slumber,
Wither will I remember,
A smile that took forever,
It gives me such scruple to wipe it hither;
For it is not a plunder,
As you may have thought altogether.

Yet we see it wither,
Wilt and die as time grew older,
Perish in the dark, deeper than ever;
Sun shines no more, nothing makes us warmer,
Wind blows drearier making us shiver.

Taking the plunge down under,
Feeling the plight of the bearer,
Never shall I trespass the border,
That keeps our friendship together;
Seeking refuge in the winter,
Assuming it is not untimely to the keeper.

Loathe am I to be the bringer,
Of news that bore such fear;
Tearing apart and asunder,
The peace we have had earlier,
Leaving ashes and dust and cinder,
In place of memories we kept so dear.
