BYE
You have kept me awake at night
While still away from sight.
You in my thought, in my heart, in my face
Has made every time that passes by
A white thorn in shallow waters
Just swimming in a way I daren’t believe---
Swimming?
Yes!
I have thought a lot about your “not possibles”
And while you continued to say “no!”
A gentle no, no filling the void of my loneliness,
Something touched my heart like a heat.
I cannot remember if it said a word,
But the feeling I got was enough
To make me see beyond my mind.
You have his heart very close to yours
And he has yours whispering sweet words
Which though in your Asian language has a meaning
Every heart in my state can understand very well.
My eyes cries;
My broken heart says goodbye;
It bleeds to say that last word
But what do I do
But give you my blessing, my lady.
I wouldn't block your path to happiness any longer.
Go on and love that heart
That makes you feel the caressing heat of passion.
Love him still
And forget this black face that
Seeks your heart for love.
