Long have I yearned for you, beloved of my life,
My darkened sky awaits you, my moon, my strife.
I loved you, and you've seized my heart, fate's decree,
Your lovely eyes engraved in mine, eternally free.
The darkness in my heart ends, you're my dawn, my morrow,
Come close, quench my fire, ease my pain, my sorrow.
Have mercy on my longing, my endless night,
I chose your eyes to be my path, my guiding light.
To reach your beautiful heart, I beseeched the Most High,
Do not stray, my dearest, cause my despair to sigh.
In life's desert, you're my shadows, my trees,
I long to see you always, even when you're at ease.
I cannot bear distance, nor can I endure patience,
You said I was created not for tranquilations.
Created to be amidst the winds, a part,
I've never known happiness, only darkness in my heart.
You said sadness is my constant, as if it's my fate,
As if within my heart, there's a piercing state.
I love you, yet my heart bleeds, a silent plea,
I love you, yet fear the wrath that may be.
I love you, yet I can't hide what's within,
You're my family, my kin, in a world so mean.
I cannot stray from you, my love, nor do I want to,
You're my mind, my essence, my spirit anew.
I told her, I don't want to see your tears anymore,
Life's not just sorrows, it has much more in store.
Your tears are but fire, burning, a deep wound,
I love you, I cannot hide this love so profound.
She said, I won't forget you, my love stands strong,
Stronger than the passing days, it belongs.
I fear for this love amidst all worldly affairs,
My mind denies, but my heart declares.
She said, I can't be angry at you, my love,
I can't, even if it brings darkness from above.
She said, there's no beauty in this life we lead,
Death alone can grant me peace, indeed.
I said, no matter how harsh life's plight may seem,
There's always tender feelings within the stream.
We may feel sadness, at times, it's true,
But we shouldn't dwell in pain, it's not what we're due.
Life's beautiful despite its wounds and sorrow,
Even in the longest night, there's a brighter morrow.
There must be thorns for the roses to bloom,
Daylight follows the darkest night's gloom.
Life's always beautiful with the beloved near,
No wound too deep without love to steer.
She said, without you, I'm a body without a soul,
My heart, without you, is an empty hole.
Will we remain together, destiny's decree?
Will we find more than death's inevitable spree?
