unending love.
" You and I have floated here
on the stream
that brings from the fount
At the hear of t i m e
love of one for another
I seem to have l o v e d you
in numberless forms numberless times
In life after life
in age after age
f o r e v e r
My s p e l l b o u n d heart has made
and remade the necklace of songs
that you take as a gift
wear round your neck in your many forms
In life after life
in age after age
f o r e v e r
Whenever I hear old chronicles of love
it's age old p a i n
It's ancient tale of being apart or together
As I stare on and on into the past
in the end you e m e r g e
Clad in the light of a pole-star
piercing the d a r k n e s s of time
You become an image
of what is r e m e m b e r e d forever
We have played along side millions of lovers
Shared in the same
shy s w e e t n e s s of meeting
the distressful tears of f a r e w e l l
Old love but in shapes
that renew and renew
f o r e v e r
- Rabindranath Tagore
