SEPARATE WAYS

Echoes of bygone years,

Premonitions of the future,

Uncertainties and fears,

All risky adventures.

                          

What all the sea waves hide,

As I try to confide,

Ah, that I had you by my side!

Couldn't we have beaten the tide?



The sun, like a solemn witness stares,

My eyes try to fight the glare.

All of nature is in harmony,

All, except you and me



We still keep going,

Seeking, still seeking,

Love, trust, understanding,

Each,in our own separate ways...
