To have loved, but never to have had.
To have had, but to never have loved or been loved.
To lose what you have always loved.
To have lost the only chance to love.
To lose love to another.
To grieve. To mourn. To weep.
Hold me close to soften my heart.
Hold me with intention and earnest.
Hold me like no other.
Hold me once again.
Hold me if you can.
To live each day without love I look to the sky.
I look to the clouds.
I look to the trees.
I know you feel me.
Touch my face.
Kiss my cheek.
Caress my skin.
For in nature you find peace.
For in nature I find solace.
Breath of life fill my soul.
Lift my spirit.
Carry me past this desolate space.
Show me hope in each new bloom.
Through space and time love empowers, embodies, engulfs.
Through growth and change love evolves into a beauty not unlike the lotus.
The spectrum of life brings the color of change.
From root to crown I leave my life.
Unite me with the divine.
Om Namah Shivaya.
I honor the place in you that is love, truth, light, and peace.
When you are in this place in you, and I am in this place in me, we are one.
