“Longing Heart”
if only hades is my god
i would dive the depths
of the underworld—
to bring a life back.
or ask chronos
father t i m e
to r e v e r s e the c l o c k—
turn back the time we l a c k
reverse the sands of time
please bring someone b a c k.
no more melted wax
no more m e l a n c h o l i c feeling
as I read the epitaph
of the gravestone—
adorned with f l o w e r s—
soon to wither.
no more v i v i d dreams
and lonesome t e a r s;
waking up at dawn
asking for a longer one.
for he is here
he's still here.
oh how hard it is!
how hard it is for me to miss—
for someone
who can't be seen—
for someone
who's now in h e a v e n.
—Verse Asteria
