I still dwell on the day we met
I was buying groceries from the spice market
Your eyes met mine and it began
The love that would last my entire life-span
Lying with you under the poppy fields
Waiting for the adventures that life yields
Promising we’ll be together hand in hand
So our love would last our entire life-span
We watched the pink salmons swim downstream
And decided to speak of each of our dreams
You wanted a child that’d grow to become a man
So he could find love that would last his life-span
My dream was to share my life with you
And gift you a Malabar ring so you know it’s true
That to wed to you is my plan
So that our love will last our life-span
Yet in a glance, you were gone
Drifting down into the coral dawn
While I was left stranded on the sand
The remnants of your life-span crumbling in my hand
I couldn’t accept it proudly
That you are among the rosy clouds
But my love for you won’t ever disband
And will last beyond your life-span
Like a god is to ambrosia nectar
My soul will one day go back to yours
Our eyes will meet and our love will never end
Lasting our eternal lifespan
