Elegy

I valued you only when I bade you adieu If I had another chance, I would've
breathed you deeper
the years ended... in just a moments few
My freedom -
I didn't answer, and I didn't explain
I lived like a human..., no.., a man!
My music -
Your form is changed
You neither lull, nor liven
I look for you
a tune somewhere, or a lilt hidden.
My friends -
I loved and laughed
You'll be with me, when alone I cry
In a sea of strangers and snowstorms in the sky.
My self -
I laboured and birthed
Toiled for your form
You were my pride!
Now I bury you - a cold corpse...
unwept, unwreathed.
