This is a farewell poem designed for lovers, one facing inevitable death which I specially designed and dedicate to Evelyn Alagasi -Trinidad for the appeasement of sorrow over the demise of her beloved. For all lovers of love eternal, "till do us part", this is for you.
In my last breath I leave to you our love song,
Keep it in your heart where our keepsakes belong;
The song shall speak to you when I am gone,
Each note a separate serenade when day is done.
Let my last labored kisses quiver on the heaven of your breast,
Sighs answering sighs , a mingle of one breath,
When in tremulous delight I weave you into my nothingness
To blend with the useless dust of forgetfulness.
Why do I still linger for hot mating of lips
When even the sunbeams are gone from my fingertips?
Heaven! What is my world coming to?–
O, Love, let me touch you before I finally go. ###
