Trisphee - Never Fade

I had written a poem when I was young.
I was four, maybe five—
I wanted to make you smile.
I spent all night to try and make you smile.

I showed it to my family—
They smiled.
I showed it to my friends—
They smiled.
I was happy—
I smiled, too.

When I showed it to you,
You looked at it—
You pushed me away,
Burnt the words.
I didn’t smile,
Because you were upset.
I wondered what I did.

Time passed,
And I hoped to see you again—
You were nowhere to be found;
I searched everywhere.
I asked your family—
They cried.
I asked your friends—
They cried.
I was upset—
I almost cried.

When I saw you,
I saw your words.
They were simple, elegant,
And made me cry.

‘My love is brighter
Than the brightest star.
I cannot be shaken--
I never will be.
My heart holds much,
And it holds you as well.
I love you,
And I hope we never fade.’

Those words made me cry
When tears could not.
The rain would never end,
For your epitaph would make tears fall
Until the day I die, too.
I love you,
And I hope that never fades.
