When Love Walks Away
Don’t be saddened of what’s left but only you,
And look back the past to dread of tomorrow,
Life is not what we own but borrowed to grow,
As seed on ground where we once toil and sow;
We linger on this planet’s floor unknown time;
Mastered our daily prayers’ delightful chime,
To beg His forgiveness as we sinned to others,
But the purity of one’s heart is to pardon theirs.
We simply rise in the mornings’ great sunshine,
As fresh as rose emits its fragrance of sublime,
Indulgence paralytic emotion spilled by pride,
As rose, happiness must be shared, don’t hide.
At day’s end, dusk isn’t the world’s darkness,
Where above there are glints of stars to wish,
Upon the night as we close the lids of our eyes,
For tomorrow it brings a new light as we rise.
To let go all things that we could not have,
But to keep and treasure those that we love,
Life is ours to keep while it lasts its gleam,
Till our minds remember no more to name.
