I knew it wouldn’t work
But I still wanted to hold-on
Hold-on o to something that was visibly impossible
We were on opposite sides of the earth
We were from different worlds
My family, I knew would never accept one from a different place
But I still kept the flame burning
I knew I did not have a future with him; we had separate paths to tread
But I wanted to enjoy the few moments of love, deep, pure and sincere love.
Love that would last, but for a while
That which had an end!
Why would I want to be so cruel to myself and hurt the one I loved so deeply?
Why would I want to sacrifice months of pain for a few weeks of joy and happiness?
“Am I doing the right?”

A pattern is evolving. Persona hurting self by hurting another. What is happening? Share, share.
It sometimes seems so foolish to persist
When years and miles separate our lips.
Despair's a midnight lover, hard to resist
In a darkness that crushes, an emptiness that grips . . .
But the thought of giving up is just like death:
The same wild pain, the alleys of hollow years,
The python twisted hard around my breath,
My eyes cracking under the weight of tears.
Ah, my darling! If now we are in pain,
It's for a love that floods our hearts with light.
We know that we will share that joy again
If dreams can take us through this anguished night.
Soaring 'cross the sea, we dip and glide:
Our lips apart, our thoughts are side by side.
