Words were spoken softly.
Tickled my ears; such a sweet harmony.
Gazed at me in a constant way.
It brought enchantment each day.
With you, life was like in Eden;
full of love in beauteous garden.
In the briefest time we shared felicity,
it felt like a moment of eternity.
But life, like sky, turned gray.
Closed my eyes and you went away.
Saw myself out of the paradise.
Almost made my heart cold as ice.
Sadly, it wasn't even,
but thanks for the piece of heaven.
