* * *
Day by day
Moment by moment
You are more
distant to me
rather than
closer
You draw away
from my thoughts
from my dreams
from my reality
Like a train
from a platform
like a ship from
a port
like a wave from
a shore
like the
ultimate call
* * *
So fiery
is that hug of
the sun
On the day of
farewells
The day when our
end comes
