Promise me that I will live forever –
For one long and truly happy day,
When my world, free of all sorrows,
Shall glow and
You’ll be once again in love with me
/
Promise me that I will soar forever,
Shining like a star above the sea,
My reflection dancing, and then drowning
In night waters:
Promise one last time to dance with me
/
Promise you will stay with me for good –
Until the time I close my eyes to sleep:
Whisper to my slowing heart the name
Chomolungma –
The name of my life, a lonely dream
/
When the dusk’s blue arms embrace my sun, I
Promise that I will not be afraid:
I have lived today the blissful lie called
‘Forever’ –
I won’t stay to watch it lose
Its naive face
A beautiful verse.
Thank you! Glad that you continue to enjoy my simple poetry!
