The Lost Affection**

"...illusion of future memories pictured in my eyes..."

The Lost Affection

of all the thoughts of love that sprout
inside me, I kept watering the seeds
and nurture them to blossom and yield.
then, after the sun rays fall, unto souls
now fading, how could a leaf turn without grief?

the boiling steam making the clouds,
the unmoved heart to welcome the gloominess,
illusion of future memories pictured in my eyes
with the voice, singing the lonely song.
then, my eye dew scares away the bad nightmare.

the memories I kept, are now fading
for the sweat I dropped for you is dying
O! the concealed love, that invites to insanity,
you were created with the silent thoughts through you,
why can't you come to me and say goodbye?
as I stayed all the day in sun and rain
and got older than the sun rays, why?
