' Love ' by Tadeusz Thaddeus Hutyra

" Love "
by Thaddeus Hutyra

Must I be Shakespeare to express my love
one which was greater than life
seeming to last forever, everlasting

We had it so good, enjoying each other
friends and lovers, or lovers and friends
difficult to say what was first, or both at once

Our love was the Sun splashing us brightly
and the shimmering stars at night
sending us incessantly kisses of love

Our love were people smiling at us
wishing us all the goodwills of the world
and we ourselves, united in each other

Everything was in place, rightfully and godly
rivers of honey, seas of boundless beauty
biodiversity serving us as we serving her

But when you went away one day from me
with no goodbye, no a word of farewell
it was the end of the world for me, Hamlet alike

Stars crashed down on Earth the following night
and I was swept away by the high seas
a castaway on the ocean, in its full storm

I was myself a bottle with a message inside
saying I love you till the end of the world
the bottle filled with the tears of my despair
