If it could be like this
Always-
You and me and happiness
till past
Eternity.If it didn’t have to be
play-acting,
make-believe:
just an interlude
in the misty, nebulous
world of dreams!
till past
Eternity.If it didn’t have to be
play-acting,
make-believe:
just an interlude
in the misty, nebulous
world of dreams!
If only all this
were true-
that you’re still with me
walking this road together…
I miss you, my friend.
The part of me that you were
Will always be yours..
Till that promised
Past Eternity…
10 December, ’85

Beautiful as ever! 1985? My God, I wasn’t even in this world! This is a truly ‘out-of-the-world’ poem! Seriously, it’s very well written, just touches your soul. Friends are such an important part of our lives, and somewhere we realize their true worth only after they leave, I can identify with this beautifully! I miss my school friends badly, and this poem makes me miss them more…:|
