About Love Of Years

I heard the tales of eternal love
Never darkening through the years
The one ever chasing all fears
I thought I had one once

“Imagine he came.”

“And what then?
For me he is dead.”

“You’re just afraid.”
“Yes, I am.”

…Once I loved and wanted to love
But was torn out of this pure awe
When I turned back the door was closed

No farewell was there then
No words broke the silence
Covering with unbreakable ice
My once hoping heart

No songs dwelt that night
But tears of rage and despair
Scent of December flew in June air
With last tear drop heart turned into stone

“And if someone will caress your soul?”

“Who will ever dare to touch it now?
As it’s cold like all far mountains snow.”

“Though, if I would give you all your light back?”

“Then I would love you till the end of days.”

I heard the tales
Of love burning through long and long years
And thought I’ve missed the one
But the one hasn’t yet come
