farewell

one day when at leisure,

spring wind in your hair,
a sigh rising from distant nights of the past
the tears of the fallen lily fracturing the sky
look for me then,
something that remains half unforgotten -
trace me in your tears at a corner of your soul.
Perhaps it will illuminate,
perhaps it will give joy,
perhaps it will seem like a nameless dream.
But no, dream this is not for it is the truest of all my truths this,
that i leave for you is my love,
this is my immutable offering deathless, changeless.
I leave this behind,
while life carries me on along the
streams of change wheeling with the flow of time.
O friend, farewell....o friend farewell.....
