The smooth air was blowing

I was smiling without me knowing

It was winter, and I was fascinated by the air

For it was something, no one could ever bear


I decided to wander on my own

And be one with the unknown

I traveled as far as I could

And farther than I would


I saw a tree down street

That casted me, with a fast heart beat

It was the tree I don’t want to see

But I was too far to bend a knee


The tree was a memory so beautiful it won’t fade

It was a memory where laughters were made

A memory made by me and the one I love

She was the best gift I received from above


We used to lean on the tree

We used to sail beyond the sea

She came close and held my hand

And together, we shall stand


But we were both a timid flyer

Dreaming high and higher

We share our dreams together

And I could have sworn we were built to last forever


We were running and laughing simultaneously

As we take the risk, and dream dangerously

She gazed at me in awe

Her smile was perfect, not even one flaw


I could have sworn that time

We were one like a rhyme

As we dance like there’s no tomorrow

And remove each one’s sorrow


I swear, for the first time, I became brave

That I was ready enough for a tidal wave

I was willing to fight for the one I met

The one who was as mysterious as a silhouette


She was blonde; my hair was black

Though we’re different, we didn’t look back

Because we knew each other to well

Thus, we were casted in a deep spell


October 28, 1948

A time where I was about to break the wait

I was ready to tell her how beautiful she was

As I hope to finally call ourselves an “us”


I was even ready to blush

As I feel my heart rush

She was everything to me

As my heart beat rapidly


Her eyes were electric blue

And those were the one who made me new

She was meant for me

Like a fish to a sea


I waited for a day

I didn’t let my eyes go astray

For I know she’ll come

In a minute or some


5 years passed and I’m still waiting

But now my heart starts hating

She left me with no goodbye

She left me crying with her lullaby


I was standing next to the tree

Until something caught my sight, something I see

A carving from the tree’s bark

Removing all the dark


The carving says, I love you

Under it were the words, and I still do

Beside it was hole with a note

Covered with dirt as its coat


The note says, I’m sorry I didn’t say goodbye

But I can’t let you watch me die

Be happy as much as you can

We’ll meet again, though I don’t know when


These words I leave to you,

I solemnly say I love you

My life might be taken away

But my love for you will only grow day by day


As I read her note

Dressed with dirt as its coat

My love for her was awaken

It was only now that I know, she was taken


And now, this I leave to you

Our love was never gone, it surpassed the blue

I may not see her blue eyes anymore

But my love for her, shall only soar
