Lost Friend



Once a soulmate now just a stranger to me
Life, I hear is joyous but so unknown to me

You were my hope oh my sweetest dream
At last my optimism silently surrenders to me

Sensitive heart in shock and disbelief
Mind is all I have but no longer want with me

Intimacy of mind is such a beautiful feeling
All gone and forever lingers loneliness with me

Affection and care vanish in a blink of an eye
Going with the flow ends in a free fall for me

Once full of smiles and naive belief in love
Now love of self is hard to gather in me

Tired mind struggles to forget the beautiful time
No flowers in the garden yet the aura is with me

Moments and memory, the sweet feelings
An ocean becomes a desert beside me

Oh! my good morning and sweet dream in the night
None of it was real, painful thoughts whisper to me

Don't grieve and long for what was never yours
Finally, my imagination is no longer with me
