Another Day

Another day. I follow another path, Enter the leafing woodland, visit the spring Or the rocks where the roses bloom Or search from a look-out, but nowhere Love are you to be seen in the light of day And down the wind go the words of our once so Beneficent conversation... Your beloved face has gone beyond my sight, The music of your life is dying away Beyond my hearing and all the songs That worked a miracle of peace once on My heart, where are they now? It was long ago, So long and the youth I was has aged nor is Even the earth that smiled at me then The same. Farewell. Live with that word always. For the soul goes from me to return to you Day after day and my eyes shed tears that they Cannot look over to where you are And see you clearly ever again.
