Yet all human lovers

I didn’t know I’d love you

With both my heart and mind

Every love is different

Each is a special kind

 

I didn’t know I’d miss you

In quite the way I do.

For we can’t  feel emotion

Before its time is due.

 

And are you missing me now

Despite angelic hosts?

They  may care for you ,dear

But I think I cared the most.

 

Yet all human lovers

Must part and go their ways.

Some may die and fall to dust

Some may go astray.

 

I didn’t know I’d love you

And hurt invade my heart.

I didn’t know that  you’d love me.

But  we would have to part.

 

From mother and her bosom

From father and his strength

We  lose and gain throughout our life

Whatever is its length.

 

I didn’t know I’d miss you

With all my loving heart.

But . as we’re made of fragile flesh.

Humans  must  sadly part.

 

If you had been a sadist

If you had been unkind.

I would not now be grieving

And half losing my mind.

 

So maybe I should be grateful

For being found and known.

I wish you were still sitting here.

And I were not alone.

 

When we feel so lonely

No-one else will do.

It’s not that I am just lonely.

I’m lonely, just for you.

 

In the wet and stony

Pathways we must go

We must keep on walking;

Be patient  when we’re slow.

 

The inner force is working

To make new maps for me.

Wherever they shall guide my steps,

With you I’ll  long to be.
