NO GOOD-BYES

I loved him with a passion
That good-byes were impossible.
Where his pain had been
There was raw grief
And I cried to him to understand.
I cried to God
I cried to the wilderness
I cried to the Universe
And then I cried to him again.
There was a silence.
Then in the stillness I heard a sigh
And the sigh became a song
And the song became an Anthem
It was the music of time
It had no melody;
It had no need of one
It was the sound of acceptance.
The feeling was of pure intensity
And it was about me and serenity
And it was about me and divinity
And it was about me and infinity
And it was about me
But it was...about Eternity.
